I hate how they made it controlled via an app as opposed to the old fashioned remote control. I don't wanna give my kid a phone yet you know.. but this is tempting as hell at this price point..

Yeah same here. Any way to make these not dependent on obsolete technology?
Meaning anything connected to apps will in few years become obsolete and useless once apps and phones are not updated on the old items

You could use Power Functions motors and controller with this however youd have to spend roughly another $80+ for motors and controller along with additional pieces to make this all fit
Wait what? I ordered this too and didn't realize it was coming from the UK. Is there actually a difference?

The Lego wireless protocol is documented on GitHub https://lego.github.io/lego-ble-w...ocol-docs/
Anyone can go and make a custom controller for the hub. I suspect in the future there will be custom apps. I went ahead and downloaded the documentation in case I need to make my own app in 20 years. I'm think it would be a fun project make a custom bluetooth controller for it.

Same here.
You mean 3rd party apps? I think there already are.
