Which Raspberry Pi to use?

Help determine the right kind of Pi for the job.

Basically, this boils down to some simple choices:

Air or ground unit

Type of Raspberry Pi

Air

  • Raspberry Pi Zero (W) if size and weight are important

  • Raspberry Pi 3 (+) if size and weight are less important

Ground

  • Raspberry Pi 3 (+) is needed, because the Pi zero is not powerful enough.

  • Raspberry Pi 2 could be used, but you'll quickly hit the limits

So there you have it, if you don't already own a Raspberry Pi, the EZ-Wifibroadcast project currently makes most sense with the Raspberry Pi3 (+) on the ground and either the same or a Zero (W) in the air.
