I use my Pi to track aircraft on FR24, along with a receiver. Such a small bit of kit can do a whole manner of tasks. I printed a 3D case to put this in, to keep it a little safer. One negative is that a power lead is not provided. You get what is in the picture and no more. Review: Excellent if priced well. - As good as any Raspberry Pi, the 3 A+ is similarly powerful to the Zero 2, except it has full size HDMI and USB ports as well as DSI display connector, leaving the GPIO pins completely available. The same low power consumption as the Zero 2, being 5V 2.5A. Comparable performance. But the 3A+ is obviously a bit bigger. Not as big as the full size Pi 3B or Pi 4 and beyond, but nicely in the middle. They really are quite similar and I would suggest that if you don't mind using all the adapters required for the Zero 2, you might as well go for that one. In my case, the Zero 2 was sold out in many places and more than £30 elsewhere. So I went got the 3A+ because it was only £27. Still quite pricey, but that's the world we live in now. If you've never held a Raspberry Pi in your hands, you'll be blown away by how compact these things are for what they can do. I'm using it for a sort of desktop cyberdeck, with a touchscreen and keyboard, housed in a DIY enclosure, running a few lightweight Python scripts. I didn't bother with a CPU cooler, but drilled a few holes for passive cooling and it all seems fine. For running desktop UIs, it's a bit sluggish, but as long as you're only running the types of simple programs it can handle, it's great. Otherwise, you'd probably be better off grabbing a Pi 3B, or even the 4 or 5, but they do take up a good deal more space in two dimensions. They're wider and thicker because of the additional ports, not to mention the 5 really requires active cooling and is a lot more power hungry, which starts to defeat the purpose of a palm size hobbyist computer and looks more like a mini PC. The 3A+ for me was the perfect middle ground in all of that. I'm chuffed and would recommend it. Mine was supplied by Rapid Electronics and delivered by DHL. Very good packaging and delivery was quicker than expected. Can't complain. ## Features - Warning:Not suitable for children under 6 years.
