# Mounting

In case the A6K-Lite camera was purchased as a stand-alone or upgrade accessory (without Phoenix NavBox), you will be mounting the camera yourself. 

It must be noted that the ¼”-20 screw (shown on the left below) should be installed with Loctite threadlocker #243 and **tightened only finger-tight** without applying too much force as this might damage the camera housing. The entire camera will be safely secured via the lens bracket (shown on the right below) and the 1/4" thread is mainly used for alignment purposes only.

{% hint style="success" %}
Please note that each system needs a new **boresight (calibration) flight** whenever the camera is remounted. Refer to [Boresighting Flight Strategy](/data-acquisition-and-uav-piloting/boresighting-flight-strategy.md) for more info on boresight flights.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.phoenixlidar.com/hardware-and-interfaces/camera/a6k-lite-camera/mounting.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
