Pre-purchase inquiry: Starling 2 Max Hardware Revisions (V4/GPS) & ROS2 Integration
-
Hi,
We are currently exploring drone platforms for a corporate R&D project, and we are highly interested in the Starling 2 Max.After reviewing the product details on your website, we noticed a few notes regarding hardware revisions. Could you please provide clarification on the following points?
-
GPS Performance Updates (Note 1) The product page mentions performance issues with the current GPS and states that an updated GPS is in development. Has this issue been resolved? Could you elaborate on what the exact problem was and how it is being (or has been) improved?
-
V3 vs. V4 Revision (Note 2) Regarding the transition from V3 to V4 (new motor, carbon fiber frame, landing skids), is V4 a direct performance upgrade over V3? Also, when will the V4 revision, including the new hoop design and the new GPS, be fully integrated and ready for shipping?

OS and Software Ecosystem
3.1. Ubuntu Version: Which version of Ubuntu does the Starling 2 Max run natively?
3.2. ROS2 & YOLO Integration: For our inspection tasks, smooth operation of ROS2 and YOLO is critical. Does the system allow for seamless use of ROS2 and custom YOLO models, or is the development environment heavily dependent on ModalAI's proprietary software stack?
Thank you for your time and assistance. We look forward to hearing from you soon to determine if the Starling 2 Max fits our R&D requirements.
