@Alex-Kushleyev Great! Please ping me here whenever you have this updated because current workaround is kinda ugly :S. Thanks a lot!

@smilon , we have a merge request that is being tested - https://gitlab.com/voxl-public/voxl-sdk/utilities/voxl-mpa-to-ros2/-/merge_requests/8/diffs?commit_id=a128608d0ad1e4c417edc7013f9bbbf9665b754b#diff-content-bbec15f81097cb24d4e021ae03a1c7aa01ff13d6

Can you please take a look and help confirm this is what you are expecting?

Thank you

Eric Katzfey
