Hi, What comes with the rover kit? Raspberry Pi or Jetson Nano?

Hi there! It comes with the Raspberry Pi. During Covid Jetson Nano prices went from $59 to $300+, which is when we made the pivot, and the Nano prices never came back down so we stayed with it.
Plus, there’s a lot of benefit via efficiencies with the entire Drone Dojo curriculum set being on the Pi. That being said, it’s not hard to retro-fit the Rover with a Nano if someone wants to upgrade it on their own. The same communication protocol happens via the Nano UART bridge.
The only difference I saw was the UART devices were different Nano vs Pi. On the Nano, it was /dev/ttyTHS1, on the Pi, it was /dev/ttyAMA0, but that’s a really minor and easy to account for difference
