TOF sensor hardware on the starling 2 max
-
Hi there,
Ive recently purchased the starling 2 max. I purchased the drone with the standard "dual 4k and dual tracking (c28)" option. We realise that we need the TOF sensor to achieve what we want out of the drone, I have purchased the TOF sensor separately and have installed it onto the board.
This is the sensor that I purchased: https://www.modalai.com/products/m0178?variant=48528287793456
(sensor with adapter PCB and M0177 starling flex (Molex40 pin))Im confused about how we are meant install the sensor onto the drone, I can see in some images online that the TOF sensor is installed with a seperate mount compared to the one that the drone came with, as seen on this forum post:

I cant seem to find this mount for sale anywhere, I also cant find any CAD models of the starling 2 max with this mount available.
Any help on where I can source this sensor mount or get a CAD model of it, would be really helpful.
Thanks,
Rishi. -

Rishi.@Rishi-gnanasegar There is not going to be an easy way to install after we have built the drone. It is not meant to be plug and play as the plastics are different based on which sensors have been ordered when the drone is ordered.

@Moderator Why is it not plug in play? I found the spot to connect to the board but configuring the SKU based on C29 did not work. Also, the connector seems really short so I am curious how the C29 config looks.
