    Need to get an OTG and charging solution before making the mounting more permanent but it functions very well.

    Just played with this, have updated V44 output baud rate to 115200 and changed connection to match and now have practically 0 lag between input and display.  Very very happy boy. Now to play with some display config screens.

    It is a $98 tablet so wouldn’t surprise me   It seems fine with the 12Hz so might leave it for the sake of some sympathy on the old V44 hardware. 
    I think a hearty thanks is in order for your support through something that is essentially 3rd party. Really does not go unnoticed.

    I took the laptop down to the shed last night, worked straight up, no mess no fuss.

    Hi All,
    The developers of RealDash have been working with us to make their app compatible with Link ECU's.  It is now compatible.
    For those that havent seen it you can learn more here: http://www.realdash.net/
    In my short play it seems to work well and has lots of cool features.  Lap timing, navigation, configurable alarms, live graphs, live streaming of data, music player, etc.  The app and a selection of basic "skins" are totally free, then there are some more fuller featured paid for "premium skins" that do more stuff such as data logging and may look cooler these are still relatively cheap ranging about $3-$10.  One example below.
    Right now it wont work on the Atom, Monsoon, Kurofune or Black Storm as the serial stream is not enabled in those ECU's but we hope to enable that setting in the next couple of months.  Right now it will work in the Blue Storm, Xtreme, Fury, Thunder, all Plug-ins & Force.  It will also work on old G4/Vipec V series ECU's.
    Connection to your tablet/smartphone is direct using your normal Link USB tuning cable, for phones/tablets that only have a micro USB port you will need a "Micro USB OTG adapter".   Instructions for setup and connection attached to bottom of this post.
     
     
    Edit 18 Jan 2020;
    Have added a zip folder with an example configuration for CAN connection using the generic USB or Bluetooth CAN Adapters (see realdash website for supported adapters).  This config also includes an example of how to send an onscreen button press to the ECU.

    will borrow a HoloLens from work to see how it looks on that given it's supported

    Yes, I think any of the baud rates should work and you can also use the Continuous-25Hz datastream setting in the ECU for faster updates but in my testing I didnt see any noticeable lag even with the slowest settings.  I suspect it maybe more video related in your Android device but if it works with higher speed settings then no problem using those.  I just thought there is no point running everything at max if it wasnt needed.

    Would expect com 3 would be the right one to use as mine uses com 4. I’ll check my settings and share tonight
