The Pico is the MicroControler propeling the board.
It is soldered on the top of the Cansat Base Board, this can be done with Pin Header or directly flat on the board.
|
Pick up the base board and place it with the top part up. You should see the message "Raspberry Pico (This side)" on the board.
If you are more confortable with leveled board to work on then place the piece of cardboard under the board to help you when soldering.
|
|
Cut two sections of 8 pins, we will is them to align the Pico to solder it.
Place the long part of the PinHeader in the Pico holes (from under board) as shown on the picture.
|
|
Place the Pico on the top of the board. It should be perfectly aligned thanks to the pin header.
|
|
Solder two opposite pads on the board to make the Pico staying on the right place.
Place the bit of iron just at the separation between the two boards.
Melt solder... it will start to melt on the base board then also wet the Pico pad.
Voilà! you just learn to solder a castelate pad. Repeat the same operation on the opposite side to secure the Pico on the base.

|
Remove the pin headers and solder all the remaining pads.
