  @taiwohazeez ,

  Please try the following after a fresh reboot:

  voxl-inspect-cam tracking_down tracking_front tracking_rear tof_ir hires_small_color

  Running voxl-inspect-cam -a can break the camera server because there are too many output streams to process. This used to be a good option in the past for a quick test, but with 5 cameras and ~25 streams this is becoming too heavy. In normal use cases, only one stream is used from each camera.

  If you are just getting started, I would suggest updating your drone to at least SDK 1.5 or even 1.6, however you should still be able to get camera streams displayed in voxl-portal or using the limited voxl-inspect-cam command.

  If you still cannot get this to work, please do the following to stop the background service for voxl-camera-server and run in in the foreground and past the output:

  #stop the background service (it will restart after reboot) systemctl stop voxl-camera-server #run camera server in foreground voxl-camera-server

  @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.

  Hi,

  Any idea how to get the graphics of the unity game engine to work on the Voxl 2 platform via USB-C alt dp?

  I would like to make a project where the drone has a video projector and it projects status messages and notifications etc with amazing glow graphics.

  Thanks!

  @minhthinh Documentation for the original VOXL Flight can be found here. The guide will link back to the original VOXL and the original Flight Core as those are the boards it was built around. You can also refer to the release notes of the previous sdks to see what was available in the specific release that you are using

  Where can I locate a data sheet for all the required accessories I will need for the Starling 2 Max.

  My company will need the following:

  @Alex-Kushleyev Thanks for detailed information and analysis. I am going ahead with further testing with this ESC as per your suggestion.

  I have changed my propulsion system as follows: Emax Eco II seroes 2306 2400kv motor, propeller Gemfan 5177 and 15000 mah 4S battery.

  Here is my file with ESC calibration : https://drive.google.com/file/d/1uzbx9MGwF1EvRqJx6tXBqqc-j3XZSgu_/view?usp=sharing

  All the motor directions are checked and they are correct as per airframe reference. My UAV is able to takeoff a bit but at around 0.5 meters it again decreases its altitude and then after scratching the surface is flipping over.

  Here is the logs : https://review.px4.io/plot_app?log=08691d7d-887d-41d8-b00d-d543febeea59

  Can you spot is my ESC configuration wrong or anything I am missing in PX4 configuration? This flip happened twice in a row and all motor direction are verified to be correct since UAV is able to takeoff. Also any advantage of RPM vs PWM control in VOXL ESC PX4 parameter setup?

  Also my voxl2 is unpside down so I have set ROLL_180 in Autopilot orientation, but is this creating some problem anywhere is unknown since I can see yaw reset EKF2 estimator flag set as soon as I takeoff.
