Hi @john-keller , Glad to hear that it works As for the other issue, its possible that this is just a transient bus error somewhere that is causing the problem. If you encounter it again it would definitely be worth taking a closer look. Feel to open another post and tag me in it and I will take a look. Thanks!

Resolving this over email. Thanks!

Regarding RC receiver, yes you can fly without it. You can use a joystick via QGC instead. Or, you can just fly missions that don't require any RC input. You should be able to swap in a 2.4 GHz receiver. VOXL2 has no support for S.BUS so make sure it has a standard 4 wire UART. Just use the same port that the current ELRS receiver is connected to. You shouldn't have to change any parameters.

@qqa , we have document how to achieve folder-level encryption on VOXL2 here : https://docs.modalai.com/enabling-file-encryption/ . Please let us know if you have any other questions.

Sorry @senja for the delays, this post did not get flagged for me. Yes, they install on different sides of the VOXL 2 board as shown here: https://docs.modalai.com/voxl2-connectors/#connector-callouts [image: 1792693889198-9a619597-c0ad-460a-b43a-c0689c8a0aab-image.jpeg] https://docs.modalai.com/M0226/#overview [image: 1792693659205-3064b401-56ca-4e7d-973c-0fe9c3ebe5cc-image.jpeg] https://docs.modalai.com/m0062-datasheet/#connector-callouts [image: 1792693766032-bc42a15b-8021-47f4-a9b6-534603ed8399-image.jpeg]

@simiken1234 Thanks for the detailed report and logs. The images are correct. Your saved mach.var of 1.0.1 means M0054-1 hardware running the var00.1 (M0173) kernel, so the SDK 1.8.0 installer picked the right kernel and M0054(154)-1.zip is the right flat build. See VOXL 2 HW Versions. The firehose reset timeout is expected and not a problem. See the note in Flash Flat Build. A full factory flat build that still shows no USB device on a bare, cold-booted board, plus USB 3 resetting on two different hosts, points to a hardware problem on this board rather than SDK 1.8.0 or the -1 revision. Please do one more clean QDL flash of M0054(154)-1.zip over the USB 2 connection that worked. If it still does not come up as 05c6:901d, follow this section and request an RMA with the board serial (3f621d35), a link to this thread, and your support zip. Please hold off on further flash-system-image.sh or fastboot boot attempts in the meantime.

Hello. Can a Starling 2 drone autonomously fly while flying over the pipe inside a sewer? The drone must fly autonomously in a dark place to inspect cracks or internal conditions while flying along the water pipe. I'm not sure if this feature can run on Starling, so I'm asking for help!

Hello everyone, I am looking for some expert advice on a VOXL 2 companion computer setup for a long-range platform. I have two main integration challenges: Challenge A: VIO at Higher Altitudes To solve the motion blur and pixel density issues at higher altitudes, I am planning a 6-camera configuration. I want to use 4 downward-facing sensors (2 daylight + 2 IR) equipped with narrow-angle lenses, alongside 2 standard wide-angle sensors (front and rear). Could you advise on the best supported sensors (e.g., IMX series) for this? Has anyone successfully tuned the voxl-qvio-server for narrow-angle lenses, and what were the altitude limits you achieved? Challenge B: LAN Integration & WireGuard The payload data flow will be: External RTSP Camera -> Ethernet -> VOXL 2 (WireGuard encryption) -> Ethernet -> Digital RX. Because VOXL 2 lacks multiple LAN ports, I will need a miniature industrial Ethernet switch. Does ModalAI have any tested hardware recommendations for this? Furthermore, what is the best practice for routing this VPN traffic through the VOXL 2 Ubuntu environment without bottlenecking the CPU? We are currently evaluating the VOXL 2 for a broader fleet deployment and want to ensure the ecosystem can support this custom optics requirement. Any feedback on off-the-shelf solutions or standard configurations for this use case would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hardware: (board / drone / SKU, serial # if you have it) VOXL STINGER VISION MRB-D0013-6-V1-C33-T8-M26-X0 Software version: (paste the output of voxl-version) 1.8.0 What I am trying to do: Repair camera mount. The plastic piece that sits on the metal frame has a broken sidings and broken center screw hole. Requesting 3d model file design compatible with 3d printing.
