Raspberry Pi Pico 2W- Strike Pi Core delivers rapid‑fire, burst‑fire, anti‑recoil, macro scripting, and tactical assists
Strike Pi Core is a next‑generation, open‑hardware controller enhancement platform built for gamers who want professional‑grade mods without the professional‑grade price tag. Powered by the Raspberry Pi Pico 2W microcontroller, Strike Pi Core delivers rapid‑fire, burst‑fire, anti‑recoil, macro scripting, and tactical assists with the precision of commercial devices like Cronus Zen — but completely free and DIY‑friendly.

Designed for accessibility, Strike Pi Core lets players configure every feature through a clean, intuitive Windows companion app. Rapid‑fire tuning, macro creation, assist toggles, and profile management are all handled through a modern interface, then saved directly into the device's onboard memory. Once configured, Strike Pi Core runs fully standalone: plug it into any supported console or PC, and your saved mods activate instantly.

Hardware Requirements
Raspberry Pi Pico 2W
Supports true 1000 Hz polling (1 ms), ensuring zero input lag — ideal for competitive gaming.

USB cable
Used for both power and programming.

PS4 DualShock Controller
Supported models: JDM‑001 / 011 / 020 / 030 / 040 / 050 / 055

Sony DualSense Controller
Alpha support — tested on model BDM‑010
DualSense → DS4 HID output

Update Log — Smart Anti‑Recoil & UI Improvements

Smart Anti‑Recoil Enhancements

Added Weapon Profile Locking — tune recoil on the test range and save the learned pattern.

Smart Anti‑Recoil no longer overwrites locked profiles during gameplay.

Improved adaptive learning speed and consistency.

Better handling of mixed fire‑rate weapons and burst‑hybrid recoil patterns.

UI & Visual Improvements

Updated the Strike Pi Core Studio app icon with a cleaner, modern look.

Flashing the Firmware
Hold BOOTSEL on the Pico 2W while plugging it into your PC.

A drive named RPI‑RP2 will appear.

Copy Strike Pi Core Dongle.uf2 onto the drive.

The Pico 2W will reboot automatically and begin running the firmware.

Usage
Connect the Pico 2W (running Strike Pi Core firmware) to your supported console or PC via USB.

Put your controller into pairing mode:

DualShock 4: Hold Share + PS until the light bar flashes.

DualSense: Same process.

The Pico 2W automatically discovers and connects to the controller.

Your controller input is forwarded as a standard USB HID gamepad.

LED Status Indicators
Fast blink: Scanning / waiting for a controller

Slow blink (~1 Hz): Controller connected and streaming input

Configuration — Strike Pi Core Studio Only can be configured on PC
Use the Windows companion app to configure: Rapid‑fire, Burst‑fire, Anti‑recoil, Macros, Assists and Profiles.

All changes apply instantly through the Strike Pi Core Protocol. After that you can use it without the app open or on the other devices that supported.

Consoles That Support USB HID Gamepads (Native or Semi‑Native)
PC (Windows / Linux / macOS)
Fully supports USB HID gamepads.
This is the most compatible and stable platform.

Nintendo Switch
Supports USB HID gamepads in Wired Pro Controller Mode.

Android Phones & Tablets
Supports USB HID gamepads through OTG or USB‑C adapters.

PlayStation 2 / PlayStation 1 (via adapters)
These consoles do not use USB natively.
However, USB → PS2 adapters can accept generic HID devices.
This means Strike Pi Core can work, but only through adapters, not directly.

I got this working on a PS4 console, but you still get the 8‑minute timeout because the public authentication keys are blacklisted. This is my private test build, so don’t ask for this feature — it’s not public.

If you want to use Strike Pi Core on a modern PlayStation console (PS4 or PS5), you’ll probably need a Brook Wingman dongle to bypass the authentication. I don’t personally own a Wingman dongle, so I haven’t tested it myself, but in theory it should work. With the Wingman handling the security handshake, the Pico runs without disconnects. It’s fully undetected, so there’s no risk of bans — the console, PC, and any game anti‑cheat only see a normal PS4 controller.

On PC, the Pico stays completely undetected as long as you don’t leave the Strike Pi Core app open while playing. Set your settings, then close the app. Kernel‑level anti‑cheats on PC can detect the app if it’s running, but once it’s closed, they only ever see a normal PS4 controller.

I’ve been using this for a while, and I’m sharing it publicly now so others can enjoy it. Be grateful — it’s completely free, and anything you connect the Pico to will always see it as a normal PS4 controller.

I designed the features to feel human‑like, which adds another layer of protection. I’ll keep adding more features in the future. I do this to learn more about how controllers work and how to manipulate them, and because I hate seeing people spend money on things they could build themselves — especially paying for scripts made by random guys on Cronus Zen.

I don’t own a Cronus Zen or any similar device because they’re a waste of money, and the hardware can be detected by proper anti‑cheats. Companies just don’t invest in the right detection software, so these devices slip through. The companies that make these devices — and the people selling scripts for them — always claim they’re “undetected,” but that’s not true. The device drivers literally identify themselves as Cronus Zen, Titan Two, or whatever hardware it is. If online games paid for proper detection, all those devices would be easy to ban.
