Light Sensor / GPS Mast

Instructions

Attach the mounting tray to the mast using the attached adhesive tape.
Use the provided M3 x 8mm screws and 2.5mm hex driver (provided with Astro) to attach the mast to the aircraft.

When installed correctly the Light Sensor/GPS mount should allow the Astro to fit in the case while still attached. However, the light sensor itself will need to be removed from the mounting tray.
