Voxl 2 SDK 1.1.1
-
I just read the user guide for PWM IO board https://docs.modalai.com/voxl2-io-user-guide/ and found that PWM support for voxl2 io board will be released from SDK 1.1.1.
However, I am not able to find that particular SDK to download or upgrade anywhere. Where can i download and upgrade the to the latest SDK? -
@Jetson-Nano It hasn't been released yet. We have a release candidate that we will be testing next week. If testing goes well we make it an official release.

@Eric-Katzfey Hi Eric, Our team is looking forward to this as well using the VOXL2 flight deck - SBUS input to VOXL2 IO - VOXL2 IO PWM output to m500 ESCs setup. I note when flashing with the SDK 1.1.0 and then using 'apt update && apt dist-upgrade -y' after flashing, then voxl-suite is advertised as "voxl-suite 1.1.1" at the banner screen when logging in via adb or ssh. It was advertised as "voxl-suite 1.1.1-beta" yesterday. Does flashing with SDK 1.1.0 and then running 'apt dist-upgrade' do the same thing as what you are planning to release officially in a few days?

@JoeC SDK 1.1.1 is now available. Please use the installer in the voxl2_SDK_1.1.1.tar.gz archive to install this.

@Eric-Katzfey Thanks Eric 1 question and 1 comment on this. question: Just to verify, I now need to update the VOXL IO firmware as well as of 1.1.1, correct? It seems like the correct firmware update is here: https://docs.modalai.com/voxl2-io-firmware/ comment: I'm getting a "no mags detected" error upon connection to QGC; changing SYS_HAS_MAG parameter to 0 at least removes the error but doesn't help with yaw estimation (naturally).

@JoeC Ah, yes, that is an excellent question! Rather than try to update the firmware in your existing voxl io board(s) we will send you new one(s) with the updated firmware. These new ones will also be upgradeable in the future. Contact us at http://modalai.com/contact to request your updated module(s).
