These are flashcarts which we don't necessarily recommend but are available to buy. Information is provided here about these carts for people who may already have one.
While on the surface this may look like an original R4 clone - and is often described as an original R4 - this is actually an **r4dspro.com** clone instead. It is based on the R4 Ultra which is a derivative of the Acekard 2i. It does not pass AKAIO's clone checks, however, it can run BL2CK OS like most other Acekard2i based carts. **Note that this cart will not work on a stock DSi/3DS**.

It is based on the R4 Ultra, which is itself a derivative of the Acekard 2i. However, it doesn't pass AKAIO's clone checks, therefore making BL2CK OS the best kernel choice like most other Acekard2i based carts. This cart is recommended for those seeking a WoodR4 UI cart for use in a DS Lite or DS Phat. BL2CK tends to avoid the AP-patching issues Ace3DS+ clones have, therefore making the R4DSPro a fairly good option for anyone that would prefer WoodR4 over EOS. **Note that this cart will not work on a stock DSi/3DS**.

BL2CK is the recommended kernel for this cart. The stock kernel is also an option, although it isn't great for playing your DS ROMs:
