        @sero Interesting solution. Does it take USB only as an input? Any issues there?

          @mizzoudavis small palm sized board is needed. You can purchase in amazon, ebay or other replacement shop.

            I removed the controller (which has just USB) and replaced it with a controller from eBay that has HDMI, VGA, etc.:

            eBay item 360626141655 :)

                @Sean Thank you! I wonder if the USB output of the controller board is enough to power the RPi?

                  @mizzoudavis enough but sometimes not stable. I use another hub.
