[External Controller][iMpulse Controller] A button huge lag

This is iMpulse Controller, a bluetooth hid (it can run as a bluetooth keyboard, so DraStic can bind easily)
Image
website: http://impulsecontroller.com/

The controller was updated to the latest firmware http://impulsecontroller.com/firmware/
It was tested with Actionvision Anthology and other games http://impulsecontroller.com/Android/
It was paired and setup in iMpulsify app: Standard Northpaw (left hand d-pad), Universal OS mode, 1 player.
Image
In iMpusify app shows normal behavior, no lag.

iMpulse / DraStic
A = Y
M = X
V = A
W = B
U = R
N = L

(while binding, DraStic shows no signal of latency)


Problem: it seems A button has a huge latency with DraStic and it seems to affect only this button.
The first delay takes like 3 seconds to trigger (in New Super Mario Bros. it behaves like a normal jump) and if you keep pressing it fast, the second press, after 0.5 sec, will be shorter (a short jump).

Playing games with it seems to be almost impossible, help?

ddid you try mapping a to another button to see if we can rule out its the bt controller?

Yes! I've tried to exchange button order too.
It seems the first A button press in DraStic always work, but then suddenly it begins to lag only the A button.

I'm going to contact iMpulse developers to ask help to debug.

I've also been having this issue of lag between the controller and the app, but it doesn't seem limited to the A button for me. Glad to see that it's been noticed however.

Scuz: no I didn't find a solution, it seems to be a DraStic only problem.
I saw your youtube video, my impulse controller behaves exactly like that, tested with mario too.

ps: I can't reply using PM yet
