Wahoo Direct Connect?

doudar opened this issue · comments

I'm wondering if anyone has thought of implementing the BLE FTMS over TCI/IP that the Wahoo Direct Connect serves up?

It seems like this is probably a direction that trainers in the future may support.

GPLama actually has a great video on analysis of the communication protocol with Wireshark and might provide enough information to reverse engineer it.

The other trick is that while it's supported by most apps currently, Zwift does not.

wow i didn't know about this @doudar

Yah, it looks pretty darn cool and opens up the possibility of less expensive hardware.

Thanks a bunch for your interest @cagnulein !

If you need better wireshark logs, you might be able to get in touch with @GPLama (Shane Miller). He's been responsive to emails in the past.
