Camera robot and Power output concerns

Sat Nov 14, 2015 10:56 am

Hi,

I am trying to build a "turnkey" Camera project, based on the GoPiGo kit: http://www.modmypi.com/raspberry-pi/set ... rch=gopigo

It's written that it's compatible with the Raspberry Pi A+ but my question is:
Has the Raspberry Pi A+ enough out power to feed: Thank you all!

The A+ has the exact same power structure as the B+ but uses slightly less power itself.

If you can power it from a B+ you can power it from an A+.

The Servo might need to be powered from a separate source (whether you use an A+ or a B+) depending on it's power consumption..
