VOXL Mini 4in1 ESC conflicts with Power Module v3
-
@Eric-Katzfey is there such a version of the driver available?
@hmlow No, we will need to create that. If you are comfortable with px4 software you can make the change yourself to try it out.

@Eric-Katzfey The driver resides on PX4 and not the ESC itself (firmware)?
@hmlow Yes. The ESC firmware will send a message with battery information to the modal_io esc driver in PX4. The modal_io driver decodes that message and creates the PX4 battery_status uorb topic from it.

@hmlow , sorry for the inconvenience. I will add a parameter to disable the publishing of battery status by the ESC driver. Can you please confirm which version of PX4 you are currently using?

@Alex-Kushleyev thanks for the assistance as always
@hmlow The new version is available here: http://voxl-packages.modalai.com/dists/qrb5165/staging/binary-arm64/voxl-px4_1.14.0-2.0.43_arm64.deb. This version has a new parameter MODAL_IO_PUB_BST that defaults to the value of 1 meaning it will send out battery_status messages. If you change that parameter to 0 it will stop sending out the battery_status messages.
