Core Highlights​

  • Powerful Core, Deep Optimization: Equipped with an Allwinner H5 quad-core processor and pre-installed with the deeply customized FlyOS & Klipper firmware. It offers significant improvements in command processing and motion planning performance compared to native systems.
  • Dual Storage Solutions, Flexible Choice: Provides an onboard M2WE interface (for FLY custom modules) and a standard Micro SD card slot. Users can choose between the high-speed eMMC solution or the economical and flexible SD card option as needed.
  • Ready-to-Use, Mature Ecosystem: The system comes pre-installed with all essential plugins (such as the environment required for Input Shaping and Resonance Compensation), greatly reducing setup time and allowing for quick deployment into printing.
  • Industrial-Grade Design and Power Supply: Supports 12-24V wide voltage input and integrates a dedicated SPI accelerometer interface, ensuring long-term stable and reliable operation.
  • Rich Interfaces, Comprehensive Expansion: Offers various display outputs (HDMI, TFT), 4 USB 2.0 ports, an Ethernet port, and a CAN bus interface to meet the connection needs of various peripheral devices.
  • Convenient Maintenance, OTA Support: Supports one-click online system updates (OTA), allowing users to obtain the latest features and security patches without re-flashing the system.

Purchase and Usage Notes​

Important: Regarding Storage

The FLY-Pi V2 does not come with any storage device pre-installed. You must prepare at least one of the following storage media yourself for the device to function properly:

  • Option 1 (Recommended): Purchase the FLY custom M2WE module (Wi-Fi/eMMC) for faster system response and higher reliability.
  • Option 2: Prepare your own Micro SD (TF) card, with a recommended capacity between 16GB-128GB.

    • Optional Features: Support for Klipper-Screen (touchscreen) and Crowsnest (camera) is integrated but not enabled by default.

Important Notes​

Interface Conflict Warning

The TFT screen, SPI accelerometer interface, and RRF expansion interface cannot be used simultaneously!

  • Hardware Conflict: The aforementioned interfaces physically share the same set of SPI resources.
  • Consequence: Simultaneous connection will cause abnormal screen display and severely erroneous accelerometer data.
  • Solution: Only connect and use one of these interfaces at a time.
M2WE Interface Warning

Proprietary Protocol, Strictly Prohibit Connecting Non-FLY Devices!

  • The onboard M2WE interface uses a FLY proprietary custom protocol, and its physical and electrical specifications are non-standard.
  • Only connect the officially provided FLY M2WE module (Wi-Fi / eMMC).
  • Strictly prohibit connecting any standard or third-party M.2 devices, as this will cause permanent hardware damage to the mainboard.
Regarding Wi-Fi Functionality

The FLY-Pi V2 does not have onboard Wi-Fi.

If wireless connection is needed, please choose:

  1. Recommended Solution: Use the FLY official M2WE Wi-Fi module.
  2. Alternative Solution: Use a driverless universal USB Wi-Fi module, ensuring it is compatible with Linux systems.
