There are also inexpensive heat sink kits.  Some opt for no after market cooling options at all, however it has been reported the the Pi4 will self cool the best when placed/mounter in the vertical direction.

===SD Card===
For casual running of FlightGear, a quality SD card works well. Look for Class A1 cards. The 'A' is for applications. In addition to a write speed of 10MB/s, these support at least 1500 read operations and 500 write operations per second. Do not use cheap fake SD cards. Interestingly, there is a new tool to test your SD cards. This new tool is called agnostics and can be installed with the below commands:
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
sudo apt update
sudo apt install agnostics
</syntaxhighlight>
What device does it test?

<blockquote>
It tests whatever device currently containst the directory /var/tmp. If you want to test another device, modify the relevant line in sd_bench.fio to select a directory on the device you want to test.
