Additional Information

For boards that use a daughterboard to connect, such as the H87NU, you can purchase a fly daughterboard, secure it, and connect it to the board as shown in the image above.

The screws used are socket wrench M2 X 4mm and screwdriver bit is H1.5.

 

If you're not using a daughterboard and you're concerned about empty space, unscrew the top right weight, flip it over and screw it in with the flat part.
