Dalia Asks:

I recently ordered a wifi module from Little Bird to go with my Raspberry Pi Pico, but I didn't realise at the time that it was only suitable for connecting to a pcb board. I have since ordered an ESP8266 from Jaycar, but that requires pins to be soldered on, which I can't do. So I'm hoping to find a wireless module, which will allow me to transmit data across a serial connection from the pico, and then send the data to a server for processing. I have previously done this using an ESP8266 chip, but I don't have access to a soldering iron anymore, so I need one that already comes with pins attached. Do you have any products that would be suitable for this purpose?

Thank you in advance for your help!
