Will the usb stick that came with a Garmin 310xt work with the Direto trainer?
I don’t know through experience but this is from DC Rainmaker’s comments in the review of that trainer
Yup, in short, you’d need the stick. Some ANT+ stick, really any stick.
It may be worthwhile checking in your circle of friends, especially runner friends. Many runners may have older Garmin Forerunner watches (made more than 3+ years ago) that had sticks that came with them that they might not be using anymore sitting in a desk drawer.
So sounds like it will
Yes as long as it is the version 2.0 or something (not the older 1.0 original version).
I have a 1st gen Direto and use my Garmin Ant+ USB stick from my old 310XT actually. Works perfectly fine but I also run a USB extension cable and have the stick right on the front support arm (taped on) of the Direto directly under the bottom bracket of my bike.
