      Hello,

      We want to use RemoteID in our VOXL2 stack, and we are one short on USB connectors. We saw the tutorial on https://docs.modalai.com/voxl2-usb3-uart-add-on-user-guide/ to use the M0125 add on for RemoteID. The thing is, we're already using J3 to connect M0141 https://docs.modalai.com/usb2-type-a-breakout-add-on/ breakout, to use with our WiFi module (the usb port) and some external ToF sensors through I2C. We have deemed that we can use J19's I2C instead for the ToF, but for the WiFi module we are struggling to find an alternative for USB. Therefore we are wondering if we would need to make a small simple PCB with, for example, an IC from TI's USB251X Family. This is because we are quite close on the weight limit for our drone, and want the solution to be as light weight as possible.

      My question is essentially, is connecting a USB hub to the M0125 the easiest/lightest solution, or is there some other way to use both RemoteID and WiFi through USB? Also, will connecting a USB hub IC to the M0125 even work in the VOXL SDK?

      Thanks in advance
