        @Chad-Sweet There is not an option for 5 in EKF2_MAG_TYPE.
        Should I leave this at “Automatic” or select “None” ?

          @Chad-Sweet I selected "None" for the EKF2_MAG_TYPE and entered "0" for the SYS_HAS_MAG.
          The Odometry x y values are still at 0.
          Do I need to change anything in my voxl-vision-px4.conf files now that I am not using a GPS?

          "config_file_version":  1,

          Should I just unplug the Cirocomm GPS?

            I unplugged the GPS from the Seeker. I am still not able to get position control in MAVLink and my Odometry x y values are still at 0.
            Maybe the last option to do is to re-calibrate my cameras...

              If voxl-inspect-qvio shows functioning VIO data, there is no need to calibrate cameras. VIO is working. PX4 is most likely misconfigured.

              If you have a GPS, then you likely have a magnetometer?

              Seeker should have arrived pre-configured for VIO flight. No need to change anything. VIO is flight tested for 20 minutes before being shipped.

                  Yes, I have this GPS/Magnetometer that is on the back of the Seeker above the battery compartment.

                  If my PX4 is possibly misconfigured, should I just remove PX4 and start clean?
                  Or, is there something you might know that could be causing the problem in PX4?

                    Here are the default Seeker parameters for PX4 1.11

                    Here are the helper parameters for Seeker indoor VIO flight

                      @Chad-Sweet Thank you 🙏
                      I will load these into PX4 and test it.

                        @Kris Can you post a pic of QGC under MavLink Inspector, go to the tab that says Local_Position_Ned and see what the X, Y, Z show. I want to verify how those numbers are numerating.
                        Normally if the X & Y are zeroed out, VIO hasn't started yet or has blown up. A power-cycle can fix this, but I would think you've already attempted that. Looks like you've already attempted resetting voxl-vision-px4 & qvio.
                        You may want to try reconfiguring mpa:

                        voxl-configure-mpa -p -f seeker -b blue -c 7 --fc yes
                        

                        Power-cycle afterwards. You'll have to set your qgc-ip again since mpa will reset it to factory.

                          Ok, I will try that now.
                          My position is still being rejected after resetting PX4 and loading the new paremeter files.

                            I have actually reconfigured mpa before, but I will try it again after I have loaded these new PX4 parameters.

                                @Adrian-Hidalgo @Chad-Sweet , Is there anything else you would like to look at on my end or something else I can try to resolve this issue?

                                  @Kris what version of PX4 are you using?
                                  This forum may have similar issues and it was resolved by updating PX4

                                    @Adrian-Hidalgo I honestly don't remember which one I installed. Could you please remind me how to check for the version?

                                        @Kris select the Q, should say in the menu selection below application settings

                                          @Kris you could try loading a previous sys-image & sdk. Did it work before updating?

                                            @Adrian-Hidalgo I have not had it for very long. I have not gotten it to work before.
