Re: Random Directional Inputs (possibly Joystick)

I had the same issue. The easy resolution was to disable the joystick at driver level.

/home/pi/RetrOrangePi/GPIO/drivers/tz_gpio_controller.py

Best,
Max

Re: System Crashs on Battery

System Crashs on Battery

Hello, I received my RS2 yesterday. I charged the device over night and was trying it this morning. Unfortunately, it works all well as long as the device is still plugged in.
