    Hi! I am trying to use the scripts in esc-tools to read the 4in1 esc for the voxl2mini
    and it seems like only 1 of the 4 escs is detected:

    voxl2-mini:/usr/share/modalai/voxl-esc-tools$ python3 voxl-esc-verify-params.py 
    Detected Python version : 3.6.9 (default, Mar 10 2023, 16:46:00)

    voxl2-mini:/usr/share/modalai/voxl-esc-tools$ 
    
    

    more info about the system:

        @Alex-Kushleyev thank you for the fast reply!

        I (apparenmtly) solved the issue after upgrading everything to latest version and uploading the correct params for m0129 v3 from my laptop
        interestingly the mini2 detects the complement of what my usb-uart cable detecs

        but yes thank you for the tools, otherwise I had no idea how to recover a bricked 4in1 lol

          @tiralonghipol , great to hear! if you have this issue again, you should be able to recover the ESC using the steps I described.
