Hi Guys,
One of the best upgrades I have done on my Ender 5 Pro is install an raspberry pi 4B along with 7" touch screen using octoprint and octoscreen, i can now wirelessly print to the ender 5 pro rather than having to use the microsd card or usb cable, also the screen allows for control over the printer in a better way than the standard marlin screen does.
Its easy to install both bits of software on the raspberry pi and there are loads of instructions online along with videos explaining the process.
One other great upgrade is a glass print bed, swap to glass and make you life better, prints are so much nicer on glass and also the levelling process (especially when using bltouch) is easier as you get a perfectly flat bed to start with its just a case of getting the 4 corners level.
The next big upgrade i did i will cover in another post as that was much harder especially with having to compile the Marlin 2 software.
