Quote:@rszemeti: On the mechanical and electrical side, the V1 HAT does work with the Pi 5. The only thing to watch is, that the pins of the MAIANA connector don't touch the metal shielding of the USB connectors. Maybe put a piece of plastic under the HAT in that area.
Perfect I shall order a Pi5 then and slap it on with suitable spacers/unsulators etc to ensure it doesn't touch.
I am hoping the increased processing speed of the Pi5 will make my plotter a little more responsive. I'm not fussed about upgrading to OpenPlotter4, It's taken me long enough to get this set up how I like it .. so I'm hoping just popping the SD card out of the Pi4 will work on the Pi5 ... maybe.
Will the MacArthur power module be enough to power a Pi5? I ssume the Pi5 has increased current draw?
