Locating gluonpilot not directly on COG

Hi,

We'd like to place our camera right over the COG, we have a choice to either place the Gluonpilot directly over the top of the camera on some platform or flat on the base of the payload area but the center of the Gluonpilot would be 6cm back from the COG. What are the implications of doing this ?

It would also need to be rotated by 90 degree's in the Y direction I've seen some drop down in the configuration which I think allows you to rotate the forward direction of the board like this.

Thanks,
Tim.

Hi Tim,

If you don't do any wicked maneuvers in manual mode, it is not critical that the GP is right on the COG. Better place the camera there for sharp photos :-)

Yes you can rotate the module and configure this in gluonconfig -> sensors.
