corner of the bottom of Pixhawk

without disconnecting any of the

cables.

Place the guide over the back-left

corner of the plate as shown. It may

be helpful to tape the guide in place.

Align the top-right corner of Pixhawk

with the guide. If the I

touching Pixhawk, complete this step

to adjust its position.

Use a flat-head screwdriver or similar

tool to wedge the splitter and

adhesive gently away from the plate.

To avoid damaging the splitter, do not

use too much force or put pressure

on the connectors.

Move the splitter a few millimeters

away from Pixhawk so that it won’t

touch the board in its new position.

The splitter may overlap slightly onto

the cutout in the plate as long as it

can stick securely in place.

If the splitter touches Pixhawk in its new

position, use a tool to adjust the position of

the splitter so that it has a few millimeters

of clearance between the two components

as shown.

Be very careful when completing these steps! The adhesive on the foam will

only stick once, so make sure to place the pieces carefully the first time.
