Moitessier HAT Orientation
#1
I have a question.  I may be having an issue, but maybe not.  I may have to re-mount the HAT.  Does the Moitessier HAT have to be mounted in the boat in a specific orientation...as flat with GPS antenna up?  I have an external GPS antenna attached.  When installed in my boat, the top of the HAT will be facing the front of the boat.  When I click 'boat is level' in pypilot, the orientation of the boat changes to level.  I then go through the process of calibrating the accelerometer and compass, but it seems that the globes where the dots appear is sideways.  When rotating 360 degrees, the dots only appear at the bottom.

Is this because the HAT has to be GPS antenna UP?  I currently have it sideways.
