PX4 stops running

[kestrelsystemsbp]

We are using two starling 2 drones for our project. On the first drone voxl-px4 starts automatically at boot and runs without problems, but on the second drone px4 needs to be manually set to run. This would not be a huge problem in itself, but px4 always end up stopping after a few minutes. I have looked into the logfile of px4 and it shows that on February 27th px4 was stopped, but what was done that day in particular is difficult to remember in hinsight

@kestrelsystemsbp Can you disable the px4 autostart (e.g. systemctl disable voxl-px4) and then reboot the drone? Then start voxl-px4 from the command line and capture it's output (e.g. voxl-px4 -d)?

@Eric-Katzfey
This is what I get when I try to start PX4 back up again.

@kestrelsystemsbp That's the entire output from voxl-px4 -d? What version of the VOXL SDK is installed? Have you made any modifications to /usr/bin/voxl-px4-start or /etc/modalai/voxl-px4.conf? Have you made any modifications to the software on the Starling 2?

@kestrelsystemsbp Can you post the contents of /etc/modalai/voxl-px4.conf
