| [* black] We'll start with resistor R1 in your kit, which has yellow, purple, brown, and gold rings on it (more on what these colored rings mean later). | |
| [* black] Bend the leads of the resistor to 90^^o^^ angles about 1.5 mm away from the body of the resistor. | |
| [* black] Place the leads of the resistor through the holes marked R1 on the circuit board. | |
| [* black] Turn the board over so that the copper leads are facing up and the resistor leads are pointing straight up in the air. | |
| + | [* icon_note] You may also bend the leads outward to hold the resistor in place, but this is not necessary. As per NASA guidelines, any angle up to 30^^o^^ down from vertical is acceptable. |
