Can you use a Pi 3a+?

It’s been impossible finding Raspberry Pi’s in the USA, but managed to find a 3a+ reasonably priced. Will PrusaConnect work on it? Or only Pi zero?

Any Raspberry Pi can run the software.

Pimoroni are getting a trickle of Pi's again, looks lie component supply chains are unclogging slowly.

Cheerio,

I read somewhere that it should work over USB, however i cant be sure, its designed for the Zero and the comm port that uses.

Many Thanks

ALL Raspberry Pi's are hardware and software compatible.  The differences are in the number of cores, speed and memory; plus whether or not there is on-board wireless. 

Cheerio.

Hi, just use the 0.7.0RC3 to get the usb auto detection feature for easy setup.
