What would you like to see improved in the x4

Heres a list of what a next version needs.

  1. Same raspberry pi form factor, with GPIO going through board.
  2. Direct GPIO control, with full raspberry pi HATs compatibility.
  3. A fully enclosed case.
  4. Case heatsink needs to make better contact with cpu.
  5. Fan throttling.

Any others?

I vote for this… a better enclose shell

Probably I’m alone with this idea, but I almost never use big usb :slight_smile: It may be the time to switch to usb-c only, they should take less space.

  • usb-c/uart debug header via something like CH343 :slight_smile:

I’d like to see a version without built-in WiFi. It’s a needless distraction for some of our use cases.

Also they should sell the X4L without a case, like the X2L, instead of having to buy a whole Palmshell.

i would love to see more cores
