Mikrokopter Mikrokopter GPS Shield

Hi,

I made a small tutorial to help mounting the GPS shield

You can think that finding the right angle to build this piece is hard but it's easy :)

You will need electrical tape: it resist much better to heat and it will help for the last part

Place a small piece of tape on each corner like this :

then fix the part together in order to have the face that touch each other :

But don't care about a particular angle:

finalize the structe by placing the last tape and.. it's magic everything fits nicely :)

place the MkGPS on it to insure everything is good

I made a full solder joint, it's not necessary (as shown on the wiki), a small point on each corner seem to be better in case of bad crash

et voilà :)

Good timing, my GPS shield was delivered while I was in Texas. Now that I'm back home its time to get the soldering iron out and put it together!
