    @Chad-Sweet The bad altitude reading will sometimes prevent us from arming - but it also effects the M500s in the air. During a loiter at a specified hold point, one of the M500s was bobbing up/down about ±50ft - another instance resulted in an M500 experiencing CFIT because it thought it was at an altitude higher than what it was

    @Raza-Rizvi That error message "voxl-mavlink-server does not appear to be running" isn't normal. You may want to run through voxl-configure-mpa again, set your host IP in voxl-vision-px4.conf, then reboot your drone.

    @Chad-Sweet what is the reason for using Gralloc allocator on apq8096 for buffer allocation instead of ION memory allocator used in the qrb5165 implementation ?

    The Pipe API worked great! Thanks. Can the hires camera output RBG instead of NV12 and can voxl-camera-server support that?

    Hi @Brandon-Wightman Please review this diagram, and you can see the serial port is not a functional item in "standalone dongle mode", hence why it is DNI'd. https://docs.modalai.com/microhard-usb-carrier/#block-diagram If you are referring to the Microhard's UART port that we label "pDDL UART" here: https://docs.modalai.com/microhard-add-on-datasheet/#bottom-of-board that is present in either standalone or Voxl configs. You are right, we neglected to post that pinout, since you would actually be the first person in almost 4 years since we launched that product to ask for it. Please clarify if that is what you are after, and we can update our tech docs to include that pinout. However, we do not have Software for it, so you would be trail-blazing both HW and SW efforts here if you plan to develop it on your own. Thanks!

    Yes, I saw one camera you mentioned on there, but the SKU was wrong, so it is impossible for me to know which camera you are referring to. To quote the documentation: You can find the Arducam Specs and Selection guide by going here. The Arducam B0229 is an excellent choice. The B0229 is not an Arducam camera. It is a camera cable for Raspberry Pi. I would use some webcam listed on your UVC page, but I need a wide viewing angle and preferably IR support. Refresh rates less than 24Hz aren't really acceptable. They just don't really fit the bill. Maybe you know of a camera that would work? I'd prefer to get what I bought working, but I can get something different if necessary.

    @Eng-Abdullah-Ghazi-AlMusalami This is our 1.14 branch: https://github.com/modalai/px4-firmware/tree/voxl-dev. We have been flying with it for quite some time now but it is not complete and ready for general release. Major features still missing are Qualcomm Flight RB5 5G Platform VIO support, collision avoidance, and M0065 support. The documentation is still being prepared. If you are comfortable getting started without those things then feel free to start playing around with it. Otherwise I would recommend waiting for our official release of it. It's about 4 weeks out at this point.
