Also no, you do not need to purchase any type of rouvey subscription to calibrate. There is a phone and computer app for Rovey, you can use it for spin down calibrations, a 1 hour free ride, and firmware updates without subscribing.
I use my cycleops magnus (or M2 as you called it) with Trainerroad, Zwift, and occasionally, Xert.
I normally powermatch mine to a G3 powertap hub power meter perfectly fine as well.
M2 is just the new name for Magnus as I take it. So can you only do a one hour ride at a time with rouvy for free? Can you put in erg mode, manually change resistance and stuff without a subscription?
