Raspberry Pi Troubleshooting Guide 2024
Raspberry Pi star PJ Evans wants to sit you down, hand you a tissue and ask how he can help. This month’s cover feature is jam-packed with advice. From power supply issues to video errors, audio problems, networking, and more.
#MonthOfMaking 2024
Every March we enter #MonthOfMaking, where we all come together to build incredible things and share them with one another. This month, we’ve scoured for the most extravagant and elaborate projects out there – genuine Rube Goldberg devices that utilize Raspberry Pi to produce unique DIY projects!
NVME SSD Drive options
The PCIe port on Raspberry Pi 5 is perfect for adding super-fast, and super-large, SSD drives. It’s a huge upgrade from the microSD card and we’ve got the first of two pieces of kit in for testing: Argon ONE V3 M.2 case and NVME Base. With two very different approaches to providing SSD storage, we put each device to a full test.
The best projects! Like PeggyBoard
Every month we strive to cover the very best of Raspberry Pi’s amazing community. One of our standout projects this month is Pegor Karolglanian’s PeggyBoard. This incredible climbing wall features LEDs to provide interactive routes and help train climbers.
YAFC Flux Capacitor
Great Scott! It’s “Yet Another Flux Capacitor” built with the power of Raspberry Pi. Ambrogio Galbusera’s Flux Capacitor recreates the energy flow using a video screen, rather than the LED strips found in other projects.
SNES XL
Sometimes the very best projects are a little daft! Like this gigantic (but fully working) SNES controller. Inside is a Raspberry Pi so you can play games, and each button has its own custom-built PCB board.
Upcycle a Sonos
Raspberry Pi is ideal for upcycling kit (rescuing old equipment that is no longer supported). PJ has taken an old Sonos speaker and used Raspberry Pi to turn it into a SOMA FM radio player. He walks you step-by-step through the process.
