Here are a few things you need to be aware of while using Blync to minimize difficulties and improve your Blync experience.
Connection
If using a PC powered VR, make sure to connect Blync to the same PC using a USB cable. (directly to the PC and not through hub)
Don't power Blync with batteries and USB cable at the same time
For standalone and mobile vr, the speed sensor usually takes a bit longer to connect
Refer to our troubleshooting guide if the sensors are not connecting
Setup & Cycling
Setup your bicycle on a rubber mat and with proper space around it
While cycling, start slow until you master the controls
Minimize frequent turning to reduce dizzines
There is a body check feature that automatically stops your virtual bike if it detects you are tilting your head while cycling. It can be turned off in the settings when you are comfortable with the controls
The path sensor comes with factory calibration data that tries to align your physical bicycle handlebar with your virtual bicycle. If this is not properly aligned, you can re-center it in the device settings (after tutorial scene)
