Hi! Thank you for your interest in my instructable.Yes I have used this exact same model.Where exactly does the problem occur? While installing the RTL-SDR driver?If you like you can contact me via private message and we can work together in a TeamViewer session.

Hi,That‘s great to hear! I am already working on a solution with Alexa. An instructable for it will come soon.You can already ask Siri to turn the lights on/off, if motion is detected and what temperature and humidity your room has.I have thought of using HTTP and an Arduino with WiFi to control the LEDs, to reduce space that the mega2560 needs. But MQTT sounds good too. It would be easier to turn more LED strips on.Actually there is a solution for using HomeKit outside your WiFi range, but you need an iPad or Apple TV (3rd gen) at home and it always needs to be switched on.If you don‘t want to miss my new instructables, you can follow me if you want!

Hi, thank you for your nice comment!If you want, I can create an instructable for including Alexa in your smart home. I don‘t know if it works for Google Home too, but I will take a look at it :)

Try to use Raspbian and then install it. A tutorial for setting up Raspbian is here: https://www.instructables.com/id/Install-Raspbian-on-Your-Raspberry-Pi/

Hi,Are you looking at the web interface on your PC or your Raspberry Pi?Does the screen blank while looking at the web interface?If possible, send me some screenshots so I can solve the problem faster.

Hi meatfest, Thanks for your interest in my FlightRadar. To help you with your problem I need some more information:Where exactly does the screen saver kick in? On the Raspberry Pi or your PC? What operating system are you using? Raspbian? What do you mean with half the screen is not maximized? Do you mean the webinterface? You might find more help here: https://poscher.me/en/projects/flightradar/

Thanks! I am really interested in mining cryptocurrency. Using a Raspberry Pi wasn‘t the first thing that came in my mind, but then I realized, using a Pi is really energy efficient. If you use some more Pis you could even make some money.

Using just one miner would take about a thousand years until you get one Bitcoin. If you want to do this profitable you would probably need about 50-100 of these to get a serious amount of money.
