Task Description
A mount which securely holds the Pi with the hat and fits our 30x30mm hole pattern is needed.
Constraints
Constraints | Written By | Append Date |
|---|---|---|
USB-C Port & USB-A ports on the Pi must be exposed | 2023/10/05 | |
Pi is securely held in place | 2023/10/05 | |
Fits 30x30mm hole pattern | 2023/10/05 | |
Pi cannot touch the carbon fibre to avoid shorts | 2023/10/05 | |
Prioritise light weight | 2023/10/05 |
Note that there is no requirement for the mount to fully enclose the Pi and the hat, as the top will be covered and the module operates at low voltage (5V).
