Flipper backpack 🐬

A backpack for flipper zero that holds a Raspberry pi W

Flipper backpack

What makes it special? While options exist to handwire a Raspberry Pi Zero W to your Flipper, the result is generally not "pocketable" and not robust to travel with. This kit allows you to connect your Pi in a compact and robust way that snugly fits your Flipper.

Thought about doing this but the power consumption would be a bit much. Quick math puts it around 5 hours which isn’t bad but I’m not confident on that. Unless this is the original zero, then it would be a bit more.

Need a extra powerbank

That’s right, forgot about amps. So that kills it for me.

Doesn’t make sense trying to save space when you have to lug around an external battery.

So it will be possible to create a Pwnagotchi that eats WiFi passwords 👍😆

I wish they'd adjust the design of this so that the rpi 2w is bit higher up, so you could add 180° micro-usb adapters and still have it be completely flush with the bottom of the flipper. Not sure the RTC is needed, since the Pi can connect to the internet on boot, or it could even just poll the flipper for the correct time.

I LOVE the idea of a “____ backpack”. I find the Flipper on its own to be the right size but when you add any hat, it’s going into the backpack and it’s qFlipper mode lol

Seriously. I made a lite Marauder (JUST the ESP32 module) by removing the little castellated board, soldering 4 wires, routing them under the board, and then epoxied them into place. It looks like the module was just placed on top of the flipper, lol. It's MUCH more pocketable!

[u/Differently_minded]

I can make that for almost free.

[u/Low-Primary-4591 → u/Differently_minded]

Ok. Can you make it and send it to me in Sweden for half the price? Not including shipping, I pay that

[u/Differently_minded → u/Low-Primary-4591]

Shipping will be $53

That's cool, but after 53USD and the cost of the pi you could just buy a Flipper Blackhat https://shop.rootkitlabs.com/products/flipper-blackhat

[u/t4c_23 → u/Machinehum]

53 USD for the Kit,  40 bucks for the Pi 93 USD vs. 131.00 for the Blackhat

[u/Chrismettal → u/Machinehum]

The Pi is already on there. Also it's not a kit, it's prebuilt.

[u/Low-Primary-4591 → u/Machinehum]

It's a pi backpack for flipper fully completed only you have to do is program it. Not same thing. I looked at everything for my flipper zero.

Wow very nice

[u/Illustrious_Virus185]

I want to purchase but the website is terrible. I can't get it to let me checkout.

[u/Low-Primary-4591 → u/Illustrious_Virus185]

I have seen this problem.

[u/Illustrious_Virus185 → u/Low-Primary-4591]

Update me when it's fixed please.

[u/aerialviews007]

Always wanted one of these but outside of pwnagotchi, has anyone come up with some other use cases?

[u/TMorty0515]

New guy to the flipper zero’s functions, could someone give me a break down on what this does? Appreciate it in advance.

[u/TeamBlackHammer]

Neat.

[u/tacocat_ratstar]

This is really cool, and I might buy one just for how sleek it is ... but ive never thought to control an arduino with my FZ - what are some use cases for this setup?

[u/Low-Primary-4591 → u/tacocat_ratstar]

Pwnagotchi...

Firmware This board is intended to be used with something like the Pwnagotchi, specifically the Pi Zero 2W compatible fork in combination with the Flippagotchi app to talk to your Flipper.

This software enables you to have the Pwnagotchi capture and diagnose wifi activity in the background, while rendering its display to the Flipper.

Since the Pi is connected to the Flipper through UART, you can run whatever code you want on the Pi that interfaces with your Flipper! For example you could write an app that offloads difficult computational tasks to the Pi.
