Hi Richard, Thank you for your quick response! Yes, I will investigate the delayed follow up packet.

Is this a known issue and has anyone made any fix for this? It is not an issue, known or unknown. This is the design of the protocol. Once a new Sync message has been received, the servo's deadline has been missed, and it is too late to do anything with the previous Sync message. You should find out why your Follow-Up messages are being delayed for so long. In the example you gave, the Fup comes one whole period (125 ms) later than expected.
