If you want to use the battery for the RTC, it will be very difficult to place it since there is no room left with the antennas, in addition to the fact that the connector adds 2mm in height that prevents the box from closing properly. It can be done by soldering a couple of wires and running them to the wireless card box part and removing the nubs on the closing side of the box. I have done it and it is perfect BUT the kernel is compiled with the Rockchip RTC that changes the time at boot to a date of 2017. The kernel would have to be recompiled so that it uses the RTC of the board.

The problem is explained in this thread...

Please keep this in mind for the following versions of the system on the R5C.

Great machine.
