The CubeSatSim Pico board is a new PCB under development that runs the CubeSatSim software on a Raspberry Pi Pico microcontroller

This board is being developed due to the shortages of Raspberry Pi Zero boards. This has required all new transmitter hardware and software since librpitx does not run on a Pico.

The original hardware and software will continue to be supported for those who have access to a Pi Zero, and the functionality between the two versions will be equivalent.

You can see the beta code under development here:
