    Hi @austin-c yeah, and it will not. There are dozens of changes between the two boards. It's just easier and cheaper to order the correct version. We have no documents showing how to convert it is simply not doable for the cost and risk and time. Not the news you wanted, but please trust me on that one.

    @Barry-Hammond https://docs.modalai.com/voxl-streamer/#how-to-stream-video-with-rtsp-on-voxl Quality greatly depends on your LTE coverage and VPN performance. I recommend lowering the bitrate in /etc/modalai/voxl-streamer.conf until you're happy with the response rate. Tailscale can add overhead as well and our recent LTE testing has involved hosting a custom WireGuard server.

    Connected Power Module to 24V power supply and J1 with the provided 1:1 cable to the VOXL2 and was getting a green light that turn red after a few seconds. When using a DMM a proving pin 1 and pin 2 the voltage reeding was closer to 3.5v than 5V.

    @Alex-Kushleyev Hi Alex, poking into stereo a little bit. Why did you mention that guaranteeing extrinsics not changing might be hard? If hard mounted why would it ever change? Vibrations? Just curious. Because also couldn't this same logic also apply to just a one camera system? Thanks!

    More detailed GPS documentation would definitely help, especially for troubleshooting setup issues and understanding configuration differences between modules. Saves a lot of guesswork during integration.

    @Alex-Kushleyev I found that buying an off-the-shelf raspberry pi heatsink that is 14mm x 10mm (meant for the RAM chip) and combining with a fan works great for the underside of the SIP (on the opposite side of where the main board joins the Ethernet/USB board. Brought my temps down by at least 10-20 degrees even under intense load.

    @Alex-Kushleyev Thank you for the hint. We have fixed the issue by changing the resolution to 2704x1540 in the voxl-camera-server.conf. Now, the actual DFOV is 150°.

    Hi @qubotics-admin , Our understanding is that the voxl2_io driver should present itself as a generic PWM output (up to 8 channels) and you should be able to map any function you need to it. Although we have not explicitly tested every function. Can you please clarify which version of voxl-px4 you are using and elaborate on the "limited options" that you have for selecting the PWM function (what are you expecting to be able to set and what are the options).

    @Sarika-Sharma , The preview width and height parameters are always in the camera config file, so if you added them, they are duplicates (and will be ignored). Please read through this thread as it has pretty detailed explanation how to configure the correct tof sensor (old or new) for a custom configuration. Camera-server-config-helper is indeed helpful. If you use it correctly, you should not have to manually modify the resolution in the config file. If you still cannot get this to work, please let me know what cameras you have plugged in (and which camera ports) on your voxl 2 mini. Alex

    Hi @18257581 Sometimes our newer boards are lacking in full documentation, so thanks for your patience. We have not publicly posted our uCoax pinouts and not sure yet if we plan to. For now it is required to use our full solution which is host adapters, cables, and sensor boards. I'll bring it to the team. But, we are unlikely to open this up since in order for us to test the components, which are very fragile, they need to be bundled together and not separated, so it would actually cost us more (costing our customers more) to test units individually for customer designs. Only the Coax cable we sell individually and that is pinned 1:1 with all 26 conductors present unlike some of the other COTS FPV systems. However, for JST and other cable-to-board and board-to-board connectors, yes, we need to get that listed. The pinout on J4 of M0201 (the replacement for M0153) is in the same Dronecode inspired format we use at ModalAI for UART + I2C, but in this case since it is not UART, it is 2 GPIOS. So, Pin 1 = 3.3V Pin 2 = GPIO_1 (Undefined/Unavailable/Reserved for Future Use) Pin 3 = GPIO_2 (Undefined/Unavailable/Reserved for Future Use) Pin 4 = GIMBAL_I2C_SDA (3.3V Logic Levels, 2.2K pull-up resistor present) Pin 5 = GIMBAL_I2C_SCL (3.3V Logic Levels, 2.2K pull-up resistor present) Pin 6 = GND

    The latest firmware for M0065 can be found on gitlab here or directly on voxl2 in /usr/share/modalai/voxl2-io-tools/firmware/ Once updated, the firmware will be detected as version 2. The previous version 1 is no longer supported due to several bugs. Alex

    @Morten-Nissov Likely should all be off, it's been a while since I've had one of these come across my desk. I'll see if I can find one to reference.
