IMU Orientation
#1
I purchased a MPU9255 IMU for Openplotter it should arrive today. 

Once I get it installed and working on the Pi3 how is the IMU supposed to be oriented once installed in the boat?

I assume it has to be level with the Z axis pointing up, but I'm not sure if the Y or X axis should point towards the bow

Thanks,
Tim
