Pros & Cons
Cons
The raspberry pi does not work on usb. Un-plugging usb and reconnecting has no impact. The pinout for spi for drivers is so bad that just pluging in the pt100 stick renders the board effectively dead.

Highlights
Quality
The board is made with utmost quality.
8 motor ports, 8 fans, 3 hot ends, wifi and bluetooth expansion!
Turns out the firmware that was installed was out of date and would crash when trying to configure the can network with the btt sb2240.
Their instructions are garbage they have you hook up the wrong pin for uart.
Shipping
No defects or flaws, shipping was fast.
The first board i got didn't output to my reprap display, but the replacement i ordered came in 2 days and seems to work with it.
Competitiveness
I'd go ahead and pair it with the btt tmc2209 drivers as well.
I considered the spider but for about the same price decided on the octopus.
