I looked up the source code and I found out that the rate is stored in a uint8_t. So, I made a quick-and-dirty change just to check if it is possible to get a speed between two hole numbers. It seemed to work properly. Is there a reason to use an uint8_t instead of a float, for example? Thank you, Iñaki Murillo
