I’m part way through a Spear build and I’m trying to decide where to put my F405 flight controller (Arduplane). The Spear has that great spot on the spar, but there’s two problems with that. The F405 is too long so I need to turn it 90 degrees, and because I’ve decided to use the pins for all the connections (I’m expecting to use this controller else where some day so it seemed like a good idea when I soldered on all the pins) that makes the board too tall.
I know I can carve out a little foam to get the board to sit lower and adjust the AHRS_ORIENTATION.
Or, I can just mount the F405 in one of those big areas behind the spar so it’s the right direction but then it’s not on the C of G.
So, what’s going to be a bigger pain: Rotating and re-calibrating the board? Or mounting it off the C of G?
Thanks!
