Hi,
I want to get two starling VOXL 2 Drones for flying together ( for SWARM Formation), Kindly tell me which hardware additional I need like Modem for connecting it with Computer, Radios and accessories, I am new to VOXL and need support like how to control the two drones over wifi hardware. I will really appreciate the help and Bill of materials if you can help me -
@Zarrar The Starling 2 drones come with WiFi and RC so you don't need to buy anything extra. If you buy the kit with battery and controller then you should be all set to fly the drones. The drones run the PX4 flight controller software so you can consult the PX4 documentation for instructions on methods to fly over WiFi versus RC.

@Zarrar It would be advisable to start with a less capable / cheaper px4 drone to learn all the basics. You should already be quite comfortable with Linux, Single Board Computers, PX4, QGC, Python, C / C++, and wireless network configuration before embarking on a SWARM development project on Starling. The Starling is a sophisticated and powerful development platform intended for developers who are already quite familiar with the underlying technologies.
