I have had a few comments and messages regarding wifi issues on the CB1. I checked with the CB1 I received and installed on the M8P and didnt have any issues. The second one I ordered from Aliexpress I installed in the Pi 4B Adapter and have tried the latest image (2 days ago) and previous but wifi either works briefly or doesn't work at all. I gave feedback to BTT on this and have been told it is not hardware but the image that is causing the issue. I am really hoping they are able to get this hammered out sooner than later. When I do get the wifi on the CB1 reliably working I will make a setup guide. Pi 4b and Manta boards with CM4 are not affected by this as it is related to the CB1 image file.

I love how BigTreeTech probably solved the whole raspberry pi supply issues with this board, added a ton of features, and are now selling this for a cool $125 fully specced out. And it looks and probably feels premium too! These guys earn my respect and they genuinely deserve to sell their products!

That's an INSANE opportunity to get a "Raspberry Pi" compatible board at a reasonable price. Thanks Daniel for this video! Just bought one set. Oh man! That's great news! I wish BigTreeTech had sent me one too! ha ha ha ha I have so many projects waiting for Raspberry Pi boards!

I'm really pleased with how this content creator is growing creating more complicated material

[moth.monster]

Honestly, I don't really care about Klipper but the CB1 is great to see. Nice to know that CM4 compatible boards are a thing that can happen, as it's definitely a great form factor!

I just ordered this kit. Thrilled. Just got mosquito w DDX3 kit. Going all out. Gonna be a LOT but it will be worth it

[iriestorm]

I've got one of the M8P boards and a CB1 on the way for my custom IDEX setup on my Ender 3. I'm sure many of us would really appreciate a video about firmware setup on this board.

[adilsongoliveira]

I was using a BigTreeTech in my Ender 3, now I bought a BIQU BX and can't be happier.

[ZombieHedgehogMakes]

I picked one up as soon as it was released, this is a great, inexpensive option to either upgrade an existing printer or build a new one. If you don't need the features in the octopus pro, the M8P is an amazing value from what I can see.

[johannchungsaojing]

Great video and I used it as a guide to setup my printer! One thing to point out is that raspberry pi cameras and touch screens are not support by the CB1 due to it not supporting the CSI / DSI interface... Don't be like me and realize this too late...

[Gixie-R]

Im a Lorry driver, Not a tech savi, I brought the Manta M8P CB1 to put in one of my Ender 5 Plus's, and the Adapter and CB1 to use for a camera base and what ever else i can use it for (when i learn how) Ive made major case mods to fit the board to the ender 5+ case, fitted the TFT35 SP1 v2.1 screen. But, as a Lorry driver i dont have a scoobiedoo on all the bits n bobs and Firmware this that and the other i need do now. Im trying the water big time A proper old school wiring diagram would be a bonus but the manual only has terms a truckers head struggles to process.

[Squintz]

I just received my M8P and CB1 for my new Trident build. Time for wiring so the only issue I have here is it is so new that there isn't a lot of info out there yet. Definitely better than paying out the nose for a scalped Pi plus a control board =). Please keep us updated on your build!

[bartklump]

i think a manta 5p would have been better
since most generic builds are corexy with 2 steppers for Z

[mfchillin]

Was on the fence about trying this out, but after watching this i'm pretty much sold! I think i'll toss this combo into my upcoming micron build

[varazir]

Bought the CB1 and the Raspberry pi base board and I'm running my media hub on it

[RedoD]

Im in the process of updating my 15 printer print farm with all M4P and CB1, so far its great I love it

[deathcube]

I'll get one of these later in the year. When it was first announced I had already bought an orangepo zero 2 and a pi zero 2 I managed to snap. So both my printers are klipperized atm. Insane value proposition from BTT! Waiting to see custom builds with acrylic cases for the mainboard now!

[un_ours_blanc]

Holy that is a bunch of features ! These mainboards are gonna place homemade printers on a whole new level as they don't require all the old tinkering anymore

[trogdor]

Just got a MP4 and can't wait to get it up and running!

[andyw]

I got exactly this bundle for my Artillery Sidewinder X2 and planning on upgrading it with this however I have got Klipper running at the moment on the BBT Pi 1.2v which is fit inside the case so no rush :)
