Compatibility Notes
- This is a ready-to-run pixel controller build, not a bare controller board.
- Use wired Ethernet for normal show control.
- This is a pixel controller, not an FPP player or show computer.
- Power injection may still be required depending on pixel count, cable length, voltage drop, and display layout.
- If you plan to use RGBW pixels or non-standard pixel types, please confirm the pixel IC/protocol before ordering.
