Is PiCar-4WD is compatible with Raspberry Pi5? if it is, do you have instructions to follow?

Just a fyi, I’ve set it up on a PI5 and it works no problems now.

1. You’re referring to the PiCar-X, correct? Yes, the PiCar-X is currently compatible with Raspberry Pi 5 (PI5).
2. However, for the PiCar-4WD model, we haven’t conducted official PI5 adaptation testing. There might be some compatibility issues with this combination.
3. You’re welcome to test the PiCar-4WD on PI5 yourself to verify if all functions work properly
