Reach RTK Mainboard Orientation

Noob Question,

Does the orientation of the ReackRTK mainboard matter for installation? I’m making a 3D print mount for my UAV and mounting it vertically would be simpler than horizontal.

Well, the Wi-Fi/Bluetooth antenna is on the Edison side of Reach (it is the long thin shape). So that should be pointing up or to the side that you want best reception.

Also, consider that the status LED is almost exactly on the opposite side, and you will want to be able to see it.

I think that’s about all you need to worry about as far as orientation goes.
