      Hello everyone!

      I just received my 8bitdo SF30Pro controller (http://www.8bitdo.com/sn30pro-sf30pro/)

      I updated the firmware of the controller in v1.10 and RetroPie too

      However I have lags problem in the RetroPie menu and in all games

      Is there a solution to this problem?

      Thank you in advance.

      I have Pi3 Model B with 3A power
      8bitdo controller connect in Bluetooth

        @titquentin I recall somebody else having a similar issue awhile back and it was due to the controller having low charge. Have you tried recharging it fully?

          I had a similar problem when using the internal Bluetooth controller. Using an external Bluetooth dongle greatly improved the situation.

            @saccublenda I can't try this solution because I d'ont have Bluetooth dongle.

            But my another 8bitdo controler work very fine !

            Thx for reply guys !

              Have you tried using it on your desktop pc/laptop? Is the same amount of lag present?
              Two reviewers on youtube mentioned the input lag..they expected 8bitdo to fix it with a firmware update.

                did you disable wifi?

                what mode did you pair it with (Switch, Android, macOS or Windows)?
