  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.

  @Allister-Lim ,

  If you are not monitoring the battery voltage while working with your battery-powered VOXL, it is possible that you are over-discharging the batteries to the point of failure. Especially with LiPo batteries, it is unsafe to over-discharge them, so please be careful. (It seems that you are also using LiPo batteries, in addition to ModalAI Li-Ion batteries also shown (green)). There is nothing wrong with using LiPo batteries, but you have to be more careful with those. Over-discharged batteries lose capacity and Lipo Batteries may become dangerous.

  It is a good idea to use an appropriate DC power supply when working with VOXL2 while it is powered on continuously. 12V 3-5A Power supply, connected to the APM (which will provide 5V for VOXL) should be sufficient. You should have no problem finding one, but in case you need, here is a link to the AC adapter that we sell : https://www.modalai.com/collections/accessories/products/ps-xt60

  @awagner , I believe on VOXL2 Mini should be able to support any 4 cameras on the J6L, J6U, J7L, J7U (specifically the AR0144 (M0149) and IMX412 (M0107), which I assume you are using)

  Can you please clarify the error that you are seeing? Is the issue the lack of correct sensormodule or something else? (you can check if correct sensormodules are present in /usr/lib/camera after configuring the cameras). As a reminder, the J6L, maps to slot 0, J6U, slot 1, J7L slot 2 and J7U slot 3.

  Are you able to connect the 2 AR0144 cameras to J6 and J7?

  What is your goal - how many of each cameras do you need to use? We can test it.
