Does Technic Move Hub (Design ID 103479c01) work with Pybricks at all?

I tried to pair it on several occasion and it didn't work. I guess it is not support, because it don't see it on the list of hubs....

It isn't possible to install Pybricks firmware on it because it requires signed firmware and only LEGO has the signing key.

However, we did recently add a TechnicMoveHub that allow remote controlling that hub. You can try it at https://labs.pybricks.com/.

What acts as the controller (where the code is executed) in this scenario?

Another hub running Pybricks firmware.

If you want other options, there is some interesting code at https://github.com/DanieleBenedettelli/TechnicMoveHub.

Did you test if it is completely incompatible with the old remote control protocol?
I am thinking of node-poweredup stile approach…

[dlech]

It still uses LWP3 protocol, same as the others. The main difference is this one needs to be paired/bonded before you can use it while older hubs don't require that.

It looks like no one has added it to node-poweredup yet though, but no reason that couldn't be done, I think.
