Place the assembled plates over the

exposed bolts in the top plate, with

the arrows facing towards the blue

arms, and secure with metal nuts.

9 Mount remaining components

Select a location on the copter to

mount the I2C splitter, telemetry

radio, and RC receiver. Use dual lock

or double-sided foam tape to mount

the components. Check that all

components are connected securely

to Pixhawk.

Where you place the components on

the copter is ultimately limited by

the length of the cables between

modules. Experiment with the

different length cables provided with

your kit, and find the best place for

each module on your copter.
