Hardware support for the Raspberry Pi

[Corjan]

There is a nice code example for python right here:

Does not seem to complicated

The Pi 3 had about the same number of frames per second. The main difference was the 'building' of the panel, it loads a lot faster. But when it's running, it doesn't really matter. It might make a difference when you have big and complex panels running.

Today I made yet another hardware demonstration video.

I ordered a Pi3 too and have a spare laptop monitor.

What hardware is being used in the video? Pi3, breadboard, laptop monitor and...?

I don't think that that's a Raspberry Pi, I'm not sure... I'm also not sure what he's using, but it seems like some rotary encoders and a IO board. He uses custom datarefs to send data to Air Manager. You can make those with FlyWithLua I think.

Any News about a new Version for AirManager on Raspi3?

I would like to test it.
In spring of this year i developed a "hat" for the Raspi 3 which has a large number of additional GPIO with Interrupt function (for Encoders) and also PWM and ADC-channels. It also has a CAN-bus Interface which should connect to older instruments I made in Hardware several years ago

It's not going to be released. We'll be searching for an alternative solution to handle I/O.
