Raw uconsole for no esthetics function all the way

Haven’t posted in a while… but I think it’s finally time to show you guys the final project I’ve been working on for YEARS now: my Radioberry uConsole :sweat_smile::fire:

So here’s the question:

How far down the Mad Max rabbit hole have you guys gone with your uConsole?! :joy:

And please… PLEASE don’t be that guy OR lady crying about how disgracefully I’ve desecrated the backplate. :joy:

Yes. I know.

Neanderthal tools. :bone::hammer:
It really couldn’t be more obvious. :joy:

But hey… that’s prototyping, my friends!

The ugly backplate is temporary. The final version will have a fresh backplate mated to my custom spacer to make room for the Radioberry CL025 — yes, the CL025, not the crappy 16 :smirking_face: — along with a filter board.

And for those asking:

No, I did not incorporate a preamp board, mainly because of power-management reasons. :roll_eyes::smirking_face:

And no… I still haven’t managed to get the Radioberry working properly through the GPIO pinout on a blank expansion board.

I know… I know… nobody has :joy:

But hey, if by some miracle one of you guys actually pulled it off, I’d definitely like to hear about it! :saluting_face::joy:

Until then… back to the Mad Max lab. :hammer::satellite_antenna::fire:

The final spacer is printing , al show you guys the v1.05 (final​:crossed_fingers: assembly with filter controler and all riged up ) hopefully tomorrow :stuck_out_tongue:

No there wont be 2 radioberry haha

Wow. Ow my god! That’s is an antenna !!!

While I was taken back to the modifications I fully support what you have done!

What a build. But I wonder, why did you not have it all in a separate box mounted on the antenna?
Or on the back of the backplate?
