- I totally forgot that I ordered this. Its a really cool device and one of the few general computing devices that you can carry around. Plugged into a monitor , keyboard and mouse (Bluetooth) makes for a convincing linux rig.
Pretty good for retro gaming as well, comes with DOSBOX and other emulators pre installed.
I think small form factor PCS but with the addition of onboard power, screen, keyboard and pointing devices makes them all kinds of next level useful!

Thanks you lovely people, and keep on tinkering! - Наука та технологія
as for batteries i would likely remove the battery holder and use my spot welder to tack up a custom battery from my collection of cells i salvaged
That little black clip is just for the top connector for pick and place vacuum to grab during assembly.
Thanks for clearing this up! So I can just fling it into the bin now!
It looks like the C.H.I.P. thing that came out before the Raspberry Pi had WiFi.
CHIP was a lot smaller and lighter. I always wanted one, they looked pretty cool. Always shown hand in hand rubbing pico-8
@@backofficeshow I still have 3 boards but I never got the keyboard part.
By the time I saved up for one they had belly flopped and went out of business.

Pretty sweet that m8
That's interesting.
I ordered one of these about a year back, got it a few months back. Really nifty but I struggled to get youtube running at a reasonable speed, need to look into. I don't think it was a kickstarter, pre-order only. There are some 3rd party expansion cards that add more USB ports/etc.
@@iamboody check how the overclocking guides. I think you can give a healthy boost to it for not much cost in the way of heat
@@backofficeshow Ta, I had a brief look and didn't help much but I need to look again. One thing for anyone considering picking one of these up, check the website to see if they are shipping quicker now. My pre-order was seriously delayed and a few months back shipping wasn't by length in queue.
33:10 I'm assuming the issue is that resolution is 720x1280 (9:16), not 1280x720 (16:9). So you get a vertical picture, which makes sense.
I think you are correct! It feels like the sort of issue you used to get with Linux builds 20 years ago. I need to check if they have an updated repo for this gadget. Maybe in the driver that panel is actually is a vertical panel and they are using it horizontally 🤔
Genuinely looking for something like this, a 'real fantasy console', but their website is atrocious and doesn't really explain what any of their products are.
I can answer this, raspberry pis in mobile form factors, that's pretty much it
get me the measurements and i could give it a go at designing one for you
www.clockworkpi.com/product-page/uconsole-3d-models-in-obj-format-free
Looks like they released the designs!
Apparently you need to enter the coupon code UC to download them for free
They could have applied the "CLOCKWORK" name evenly, that would annoy me probably far more than other people, but I really can't stand seeing crooked labels, or lettering :\
@@Giitzerland I know what you mean, I spotted that right away as well!! Arghhh
