Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense with an SD card and GPS module for a side project that logs GPS and IMU data. Unbeknownst to me at the time, these boards aren’t footprint-compatible, so I combined them with a breadboard. It took a little while to get all the libraries installed and everything connected appropriately. The biggest challenge was the GPS module. The tricky part here was making sure to remove the DATALOG.CSV file every time we start up.
