Step 2c: Mounting LIDAR and Standoff for LIDAR arch stability
Ensure the metal top arch is oriented the correct way up and the Lidar is mounted facing the front.
A common mistake is for the top arch to be flipped upside down, resulting in the LIDAR facing the back. Check the direction of the LIDAR by looking at the images below and noting the embossed arrow on top.
Three M2.5 Cap Screws and Nylock nuts are included with the LIDAR
Use the included RC-CAR wrench to hold the nuts
Double check that the lidar is facing the front as shown here.
Standoff for LIDAR arch stability
There is a black (or orange) 3d printed plastic standoff post which also protect the cable.

Do NOT attach the top plate to the B3RB, yet. This can only be done after completion of step 3: wiring.
The holes in the lidar standoff can be used to store some of the thumbscrews when not in use
