    Hi,
    I am wondering when the time sync function is updated on VOXL2?
    When I run date on VOXL2, it shows the old time when the SDK developed.
    But this time, after upgrading the SDK, it is showing the current time!
    How is it working?

    Thank you.

      @voxltester It uses the NTP to update time and date. So, once you have an internet connection, it will update.

        I see. If VOXL2 is connected to a local laptop that has internet access, but VOXL2 itself does not have internet access, will VOXL2 update its date and time through the laptop?

          @voxltester Only if it is connected to a GCS that sends the Mavlink SYSTEM_TIME message.
