Comments.Text: It looks like a virtual joystick on the screen is needed to move it, did you try that? I will do more trouble shooting with set 42099 later.

Comments.Text: Perhaps if you run the program, a UI on the screen that looks like a remote with a joystick will show up. I have Lego Boost and that's what happens whenever you run the program. Try pressing the yellow start button to run the program.

After the progress bar reached 100%, the screen on my pad returned to that of the controller interface. However, I could not get the motor to move and the light on the hub is off.
