-You should setup the CF Headless client (see [[#current_state_of_the_headless_client|below]]) instead of the regular PC client on your Pi, since the UI seems to a bit too heavyweight for the Pi (controlling got **very** laggy during tests).+In order to make it easy for users that have a Raspberry Pi to test out our headless client we prepared an SD-card image that is ready to use out of the box.

 +The full SD-card image, and instructions on how to install it are located [[http://wiki.bitcraze.se/projects:crazyflie:binaries:raspberrypi|here.]]
