I’ve got a SOYO-BT24G03 board that has castellated spacings of less than 1.27mm/.05".. any suggestions? I’m thinking just laying out a schmartboard style pcb but I wonder how is this usually done?

If you need access to few pins, you can use the above method else I’d suggest using a breakout board.
