    Hi @mikhail-mayers Pictures here will be very useful. How are you powering the VOXL 2? Battery? Wall Adpater? Thanks!

    Dear Sir or Madam, We are currently evaluating navigation technologies for UAV and robotic platforms operating in GNSS-denied and contested environments. In particular, we are interested in solutions capable of operating without GPS/GNSS and, where possible, without relying on active radio-frequency communication links. Could you please provide information on your relevant products, including: GNSS-denied navigation capability; GPS-independent positioning; visual-inertial odometry, SLAM, inertial or terrain/map-based navigation capabilities; operation in radio-silent mode; integration options with UAV autopilots such as PX4, ArduPilot or proprietary flight controllers; technical specifications; pricing indication; delivery terms for Europe; export-control or end-user restrictions, if applicable. We would be grateful if you could also indicate the most appropriate contact person or department for further technical and commercial discussion. Kind regards, Andriy Lomakin

    Can you connect the Flight Core to QGroundControl using USB, and then go to the MAVLink console? You can run rc_input status from there and check if you see anything: [image: 1608185111267-0066d34f-b16e-484e-8d72-a3cc5ee1b909-image-resized.png]

    Hi @gauravshukla914 , Our flight controller is a little unique in that it can't be powered off USB so yes, it will lose power and connection during the standard process. (The reason being our Flight Controller shares the 5V rail with the companion computer and 500mA off USB won't suffice!) To get around this, we have a tool that has a user guide here: https://docs.modalai.com/flight-core-pwm-esc-calibration/ This allows you to keep the battery connected during the ESC calibration process.

    Thank you, it works now. I did not think about using my local mavros as connection link between voxl and QGroundControl. I changed the port. The original issue was a binary installed mavros which crashed when using a gcs_url. So I thought it was a configuration problem but building mavros from source and running with your proposed configuration worked. Thank you again! Raphael

    Yes, pinout here and connector type here: https://docs.modalai.com/flight-core-datasheet-connectors/#j2---programming-and-debug-console You need to make a little wiring harness to connect the JLink to J2 You don't need to the debug console (pins 2/3) for flashing, but if you are making a harness might as well and you can use it for debugging bootup if needed. Download the bootloader here: https://storage.googleapis.com/modalai_public/flight_core/bootloader/v5.0-167-g7bc2734/modalai_fc_v1_bl.bin App here: https://storage.googleapis.com/flight-core-firmware-1-10/latest/modalai_fc-v1.bin You can download the JLink tools from the SEGGER website if needed. You can use JFlash with a .jlink file with command like so: erase loadbin foo/v5.0-167-g7bc2734.bin,0x08000000 loadbin foo/v1.10.0-15-g782a54bfd6.bin,0x08008000 r q x

    @Chad-Sweet @Alex-Kushleyev We are using voxl_cam_ros, found here https://docs.modalai.com/voxl-cam-ros/ We are running the camera at 1920x1440 Can we even "turn on" AWB when using voxl_cam_ros? As of now we have not found out how to do so. Our team needs to continue with ROS, so we cannot switch to another framework.

    Hello! We can't use the original docker service file on voxl as a few extra steps are required for docker to run on our platform. Both the installation of the voxl-docker-support package and execution of voxl-configure-docker-support.sh try to stop and disable docker.service as it gets in the way. Instead it is replaced by our own service files which should be enabled by the voxl-configure-docker.sh script. What is the output you see when you run this script? Best, James
