    Hi guys, how are you doing?

    Check this out, please:

    • Problem: VIO odometry data does not showing up into PX4 QGroundControl.
    • Drone: Sentinel, SDK: 1.1.3 was 0.95, Sensors removed: Rear Stereo, GPS and 5G. Sensor installed: TOF. Reconfigured and recalibrated.
    • Services: voxl-inspect-qvio is showing perfect, also vox-portal, many features in the tracking camera;

    EKF2_AID_MASK configured as (https://docs.modalai.com/sentinel-user-guide-using-vio/#flying-with-vio)

    Questions:

    1. Should the odometry message continue to appear into PX4 QGroundControl in SDK version 1.1.3 like here ?
      https://docs.modalai.com/sentinel-user-guide-using-vio/#sentinel-vio

    2. Confirm that EKF2_AID_MASK must be configured in SDK 1.1.3 version. I would like this confirmation because this parameter is in version 1.12 of px4, but it does not appear in 1.14 PX4 modalAI gitlab.

      @Adriano-Del-Pino-Lino Can you run voxl-configure-px4-params -w and navigate to v1.14/EKF2_helpers/ and load the indoor_vio params? Then reboot and see if anything changes

        Hi @tom,

        The problem still there, without odometry.

        Could you answer those questions, please.
        I would like to understand if in any current version of Sentinel (SDK 1.1.3) the odometry message in QGroundControl should continue to appear.

        Thanks!
