Fitting the Raspberry Pi

We will not yet fit the motor controller, and will address that in the next chapter, but we can fit the Raspberry Pi now and prepare it to have other boards connected to it. We need to put standoffs on the Pi so it can be bolted onto the chassis, but leave room for the motor bracket mounting, and later sensors that will go under the Pi. The following photos show how:

Fitting the Raspberry Pi

Perform the following steps:

1. For this, you will need a small posi screw driver, a small spanner or pliers, 2 x M2.5 screws, 4 x M2.5 16 mm standoffs with threads, 4 x M.25 10 mm standoffs, and the Raspberry Pi.
2. Push a 16 mm standoff ...
