    Good day

    We have a VOXL2 Sentinel and we are experiencing a problem similar to that mentioned below. After a takeoff in position mode, the qvio error IMU_BW appears. From the source code, we can see that the IMU is complaining about the bandwidth, but from the information available it is not recommended to change the configuration of the IMU bandwidth or sampling rates.

    Additionally, we are wondering why the IMU configuration file voxl-imu-server.conf only includes information for imu0 and a couple of auxiliary IMUs when the VOXL2 makes use of imu_apps and imu_px4? How do we know that the necessary changes we need to make to the configuration file actually apply to imu_apps needed for QVIO?

      qvio-server uses imu_apps as that is what is connected to the CPU. imu_px4 is connected directly to the Flight DSP and configured in PX4 (so not configured by imu-server)

        Thank you. I got the VIO going on the drone. I noticed that when running the VIO server, the IMU_BW error kept coming up and that was the cause of the server's crash. Therefore, I increased the limited_imu_bw_trigger parameter in the voxl-qvio-server.conf arbitrarily to 100 and it worked fine.
