📦 White Case for Raspberry Pi RS 7-Inch LCD Touch Screen Review

case along with v2 official camera, RP 3 B and 7 inch screen arrived yesterday. I spent a couple of hours trying to figure out why the case wouldn't fit. The RP board is attached to the screen as shown in the YouTube video of installing the case. Not as easy as I saw in the videos. The shape of the torso has either shifted or shrunk.

In the case we received, the screen (sold separately) is mounted upside down. A search of some Pi forums found this was an issue years ago, so they either never fixed the issue or old articles are being sent. You can fix this problem by adding the line lcd_remote=2 to /boot/config.txt and then rebooting the Pi. It is annoying if you move the Pi to a different housing, because then you have to change the configuration.
