All electronic components except SPS30 and Li-Pol are soldered to the prototype board. To fit inside the case the board shall be cut from the top right corner to leave 9x12 soldering holes area and one mounting hole.
The Beetle C3 controller is soldered on top close to rear side. BME280 module is soldered vertically using L-shape pins at the front side. Switch and step-up modules are soldered at the bottom. The connections are made using thin insulated wires.
