Great little kit that gets you everything you need to get started on some starter projects, and even is a solid based for a homebridge or home assistant instance too.

Although all parts were included, there were no instructions at all on how to connect everything together, I have the knowledge to do this, others may not.

Brilliant kit with everything you need to get set up. Easy to connect existing peripherals and use it in a desktop environment or using Pi Connect to remote in. Would highly recommend this to anyone looking to start exploring Using a Pi or Linux. Using thisto run klipper for 3d print setup.

Lovely little kit. Received it quite quick and with good comms on delivery. Clear instructions on how to assemble it. Come with heat sink and fan which are quite useful. I run Home Assistant on it and it has to be on all the time so heat can become a problem. So far it doesn't seem to overheat. Connected to it quite easily with a monitor, keyboard, mouse and ethernet cable as it wasn't booting up after I installed the OS on it. Once I was in i could see it didn't recognised the SD card as a bootable device so it kept searching for a device to boot up from and restarting. Then I managed to get it to install the OS from the Internet, which was successful. Then I transferred the Home Assistant I had on a VM to it and that was it. Got my HA running happily on the pi5. Really good piece of kit, well thought out and fairly easy to work with.

Perfect way to getting started with the Pi. Only "but" is that the SD card came flashed with the OS but the user name and password wasn't anywhere and they weren't the default. It was easy to flash from my PC using a SD to USB adapter

Bought as a gift for 18 year cousin. He absolutely loved it and is planning many projects… great gift idea for anyone struggling for people interested in this area
