      Hi,
      I'd like to get the range finder data in ROS, right now it doesn't appear in mpa_to_ros, what should I change for it to appear?
      I cannot get it from MAVROS either, the distance_sensor doesn't appear in my topics. But it appears on GQC and i've got the right value.
      Is it cause I set it up wrong in voxl-px4.conf (right now the value is NONE).
      Also, how can i get an idea of when the VIO / OV start to fail so I can activate a failsafe in my ROS Node?

      Setup : Starling 2 max, dual cam, with TOF

      Have a good day
      Julien

        @Judoor-0 For the rangefinder part i've looked into the mpa_to_ros code and modified it to add rangefinder_data_t and republished it in a ros_topic.

        But for the covariance/error of the vio I still have no clue how to get it
