      Nice to see active development! Is it possible to find release notes anywhere? I'm interested to see what will be the changes per release.

        Development has been ongoing, reliable deployment to an ever increasing number of configurations has been the friction point.

        Release notes are not a feature within Alpha as the idea is to get useable code out as quickly as possible.

        We intend to use the discussion threads to iteratively create/update the release notes as we move through the release stages & include the result with the final Beta release.

          @sim-plicity-dev So decided to give it an install.

          This resulted in the wheel now showing not connected all the time. I tried reverting back to original but now I don't even get a USB connected chirp when plugging the cable in.

          Used the wheel this am before trying the update. now it doesn't even power on

              @byagm I think yours is a different problem, I don't even have the wheel moving at all.

                @wes1987 make a little force on it to test if it "reacts".
                ¿Have you got the same red light blinking inside?

                  @byagm No Red light blinking, and applying a force does nothing (it moves effortlessly). Almost like there is no firmware on the device now.

                          @mr_dino Do you have a red light blinking inside your base in any moment?

                          (mine its continously blinking. You can see it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8tiU27yOTTs )

                            can you post screenshots of your "Control Panel>Device Manager" & "Control Panel>Devices & Printers" with the unit powered up and USB cable plugged in?

                              Can you disconnect all cables except AC power & USB from the control unit, power up and post screenshots of your "Control Panel>Device Manager" & "Control Panel>Devices & Printers"

                                  I have just been testing the new update and it feels good, virtual torque has made a good improvement in Iracing.

                                    I don't even get the beep to tell me a new USB device is connected.

                                    The only thing that changed from this morning to now is the installation of the new firmware

                                      Can you disconnect all cables apart from AC and USB and check that the internal fan spins up on power on?

                                        @sim-plicity-dev I can confirm that the Fan is spinning up when the USB and AC are only connected

                                            The Control unit has 2 operational modes ( Wheel Firmware & Bootloader) both of which present a USB Interface to the PC.
                                            A failed firmware update would leave the unit in Bootloader mode which is currently not visible on your PC.

                                            Can you swap USB cables & ports to confirm that both are working as expected independently of the Control unit?
