  Hey @voxltester
  It seems there is an issue with how MicroXRCE and the microhard modem interfaces are starting up, I had to edit the service files to get the topics on the VOXL2.
  Edit /etc/systemd/system/voxl-microdds-agent.service:

  [Unit] Description=voxl-microdds-agent SourcePath=/usr/bin/MicroXRCEAgent After=network.target After=multi-user.target [Service] User=root Type=simple ExecStart=/usr/bin/MicroXRCEAgent udp4 -p 8888 [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target

  Edit /etc/systemd/system/voxl-modem.service:

  [Unit] Description=Modem Initialization After=sdsprpcd.service [Service] User=root Type=oneshot ExecStartPre=/bin/sleep 2 ExecStart=/usr/bin/voxl-modem-start RemainAfterExit=yes [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target

  Add export ROS_DOMAIN_ID=0 to your .bashrc
  Reboot the VOXL2, and the topics should come up
  Thanks

  @cbay This may be a stretch but I do think it has something to do with the difference between voxl-fpv-px4 and voxl-px4. Can someone explain the differences between them

  Hello,

  I am new to developing within the VOXL/Modal software ecosystem. As far as I can tell the recommended workflow for developing apps for VOXL2 is: write app ->cross-compile with voxl-cross or qrb5165-emulator->deploy to hardware and test. My team currently has limited hardware resources. It would definitely speed up our development process if we can validate how our app interacts with the voxl services even if we don't get the same latency as what we would get on hardware. To that end, is there a way to connect qrb5165-emulator, with my app, to the voxl-gazebo docker container? Being able to simulate how the software runs would be hugely beneficial, even if it is at a slower speed than what the actual hardware would give.
