I've upgraded my Pro with a CR-Touch, WinnSinn metal dual gear extruder, BTT SKR mini E3 32 bit board, BTT TFT35 touch screen, Dual Z, Metal magnetic flex plate, Silicone Bed Stiffeners, and E3D hardened steel nozzles I also have a filament runout sensor to add
Octoprint if you can get an Rpi Stock is improving and it's a great addon It's also nice to be able to send prints right from the slicer
The best upgrade I made. No more moving SD cards back and forth. Adding a camera and octo everywhere takes it to another level too. I also bought a little USB light from ikea and plugged it into the raspberry pi, very useful when printing in a dark room.
Is it only the v2 that has an USB port? I can send prints to it via cura and an USB cable without octoprint
Just to note, you don't need a Pi to run Octoprint. I used Octoprint Deploy to run it on a LePotato and it runs like a charm.
That's a good option I've seen quite a few using the LePotato for Octoprint and Klipper I'm just glad I got a few Rpi before they dried up
Forgot to mention that I all so added LED lights on the top of the upright and printhead
