I guess given this endevour was started with an educational focus the philosophy is on spreading the platform to the largest number of people, as opposed to letting a few people purchase many.
- StavrosK 10y agoMaybe, but if I need five for what I want to do and can only buy one, it's not going to spread, since I won't use it.
- alex_hitchins 10y agoHave you made contact with the RPi foundation? If you registered an interest for a larger number and state your educational goals they may well be able to help you out. What are you looking to do with them out of interest?
- StavrosK 10y agoBut that's the thing, I don't need hundreds, I just need five or ten, so it's just amateur usage but one doesn't work (one could easily fry while experimenting). I just make weird things out of them. My latest one is an RC car that I was hoping could get some mapping software onto, and turn fully autonomous, although an ESP8266 talking to a laptop is acceptable (and what I'm currently doing).
