Flipper Zero like RF hacking devices compared

Well I started off with a CYD, Cheap Yellow Display, then another then added a Bruce firmware update and now there are eight of them!

Three of them were built me me!  It was not easy.  A CYD is a much easier way to start out.

Then I wanted to try HaleHound, so I made my onn CYD to make all the taping into the circuits a lot easier than using a CYD and adding wires to it..

Now its up to 8 devices.  But all I use them for is for testing remote controls.

Starting from the left is a CYD with Bruce firmware and only one switch because you have to manually change the RF module on the back.

Then there is a CYD with Bruce with lots of switches so the modules do not need to be changed.

Then is the ESP DIV version 1 that uses an esp32 processor.

Then is the ESP DIV version 2 that uses a bigger esp32-S3 processor.

Next is my homemade CYD with Halehound software.

Next is a CYD equiped with Ghost firmware.

Last of all is a CYD with Marauder firmware.

In front of them is my FCFZ, Fully Compatable Flipper Zero.  But it does not work that well in spite of spending many hours on it trying to get it to work.

Marauder has sub menu  items

HaleHound adds these:
     SIGINT (Signal Intelligence) – 7
     Radio Test! (Much needed for a DIY)
     Drone – 4 (Much needed these days!

The winners are:

For no soldering: Marauder

For soldering: its a tie between Bruce and Halehound

IF I MISSED FEATURES OR OPTIONS LET ME KNOW AND I WILL UPDATE THIS.
