Giving your Feather a Wing lets it fly!

The best part about the Feather system is all the wings you can add on.

Start with a WiFi feather and add an TFT for a WiFi Weather display.

Or, take a LoRa feather and add an OLED display to make a Remote Control Effects Box for theatrical control

Pick and choose - you can even add multiple wings, short for FeatherWings, (as long as there are no pin or I2C address conflicts). We tried to use I2C for as many Wings as possible, so you can make fairly advanced projects just by plugging boards together.

If you want to make a very compact package of two Feathers, you can use short headers. These are good for when you need the very slimmest setup.

Just remember to pick these up before you start soldering stacking or 'standard' headers on!
