    Hello. I purchased a Starling 2 Max development drone and when attempting a first flight test I discovered that one of the batteries arrived entirely dead. I was curious if there was a way to receive replacements, and if this falls within replacement territory. I contacted the support email and was directed here. I can provide more information if needed.

    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!

    @Chad-Sweet Thanks Chad. We have SDK 0.8 onboard. We are not streaming videos. The issue occurs more frequently in the field, where the temperature exceeds 90 F in the summer.

    @yx We do all of our testing on linux machines so there shouldn't be an issue. What error are you seeing?

    @aashry Unfortunately we don't do too much ROS work around here so I'm not sure if someone else will respond with a better answer, but... I would highly recommend pointing a fan at your VOXL while doing development on your bench and see if that affects performance. As you mentioned, VOXL2 is much more powerful and will likely perform much better in all ways (also much more developer friendly since it's runs Ubuntu 18 as opposed to VOXL's yocto build), but it makes sense that you want to get things working on your current hardware
