Other accessories

The HDMI-to-DVI cable is for connecting your odroid to a monitor. The odroid comes with an HDMI port for media output. We recommend a DVI connector on the other end since most monitors have it. To estimate the mass of the RC, you can use a digital hand-luggage scale. We also recommend purchasing a toolbox to store to conveniently move hold your RC and all related accessories.

* You can use the USB wifi-adapter as a wireless access point, which basically this chip can create its own network which you can connect to. This is an alternative to using the router. This usb-wifi chip takes up less space and reduces the overall mass of the car. Instructions will be posted soon.
