5 Mounting the MicroVector and Accessories
5.1 Mounting the MicroVector
5.1.1 Mounting Location and Orientation
Mount the MicroVector flat and level with the top facing toward the sky and the red arrow on
the MicroVector case (or the arrow on the MicroVector PC board) facing toward the nose of
your model (the direction of forward travel).
The MicroVector should be mounted as near to the model’s Center of Gravity (CG) as
practical.
It is recommended to do a “test fit” of all your model’s wiring and components before
permanently mounting the MicroVector.
Try to mount the MicroVector and other components so that the USB connection is easily accessible.
If this is not possible, USB extender cables are available at many FPV shops.
5.1.2 Mounting Technique
The MicroVector must be firmly and securely mounted to your model, so it won’t come loose or vibrate.
If the MicroVector is not mounted correctly, or if it comes loose during flight, your model may become
uncontrollable and crash!
