Hi all, I’m completely new to the world of pi’s and I’m wanting to build a wireless number pad, with an additional analogue thumb joystick that I can assign each button to a key press (about 20 buttons). I was going to use the pico but from what I can tell there is no way of connecting it via Bluetooth. Is there any other options for a board which will do what I need? A scour of Google and YouTube hasn’t given me any luck!

or make it like a small opanable case where you can plug it to board or deplug it to charge

I can help you with that part, and maybe connecting the buttons together and a script to register the buttons but connecting to the pc I have no clue

yeah, I think the pi Pico has Bluetooth

k9t33n

yes it does

tbh I'm not even sure how to do it with a wire

Why do you say it’s no good? I looked at this with a lipo shim added on. Or this board: https://thepihut.com/products/olimex-esp32-c3-devkit-lipo-risc-v-development-board
