What is this?

  • Dual USB ports (USB-A and USB-C)
  • LED for the status and spare LED!- you can use it for other things if you like !

Getting Started

1. Follow the guide on the website! - hackducky.hackclub.com
2. A quick reference of all supported features for the ducky may be found here

Submission Criteria

1. Time Requirement

• Tracking: Minimum of 5 hours tracked with hackatime .
• Note on the requirements. I understand it doesnt take 5 hours to build a single script or even many in duckyscript so here's what you can do, If you want to excecute a python file then compile the file to exe or whatever excecutable form you need, Upload it somewhere public and then create a simple duckyscript to download and run it. You can totally spend more time on the python script and make it complex or for the challenge spend 5 hours on your duckyscript!

2. Originality

• Your project must be an original idea and not a direct copy from a tutorial.
• Tutorials can be referenced, but your submission should be your own creation.

3. Submission Limit

• You can submit multiple projects, but you can only receive one HackDucky.

Setup Guide

We ship a raw hackducky to you. There is no firmware preinstalled. These steps will help you get started with the ducky!

Step 1: Flashing CircuitPython to the board.

1. Head to the Raspberry Pi Pico CircuitPython download page
2. Download the .uf2 firmware.
3. Plug in your HackDucky. A new drive named RPI-RP2 should appear.
4. Drag and drop the .uf2 firmware into the drive.
5. Eject the HackDucky, then plug it back in. If a drive named CIRCUITPYTHON appears, it was successful!

Step 2: Installing the firmware.

1. Clone this repo: git clone https://github.com/hackclub/hackducky
2. Open the folder.
3. Copy all the files in the firmware folder into the CIRCUITPYTHON drive.
4. Make sure to choose to replace existing files, then delete the existing code.py file.

Troubleshooting/FAQ

Read-only filesystem / I don't see a drive, how do I add my script?

Your Ducky is in payload mode.

Press and hold the programming pin (the pin closest to the USB-A port) while plugging it in.

What the LED indicators mean?

• Triple blink: Startup Sequence
• Single blink: Working/Processing - running/Starting Execution
• Rapid blinking: DuckyScript is incorrect / Firmware broke 😭 - Create a PR or new issue desribing the firmware problem

My script isn't working!

• Make sure you are not in programming mode: pull and plug back in
• If that didn't work:
  • Open the file debug.log.
  • Check for ERROR lines.
  • If the error is complaining about your script, check your syntax.
  • If it isn't, create an issue!

The keyboard is not recognised!:

• Try different USB port
• Check USB connection
• Verify target system supports USB HID
