<![CDATA[VOXL flight deck not connecting to QGC]]>Hello,
I am not able to facilitate communication between VOXL and px4 so that I am able to access px4 through VOXL on QGC. I am able to connect to px4 separately using j1006 (blue connector) and can view all settings in QGC. I have configured wifi on the VOXL and set up IP addresses to access px4 over wifi. This worked in the past but since I upgraded the firmware of VOXL to 3.8 it no longer works. Please let me know what further information to provide to help solve this issue.

After inspecting services, this was the output. I can see the mavlink server is neither enabled nor running.

voxl:/$ voxl-inspect-services

I tried starting the service using systemctl and this was the output.

after configuring the voxl in softap mode, and connecting to it, the issue persists. Would downgrading the software release to VOXL Platform 3.6.0-0.5.0 help?
Thanks

In the latest release on voxl we've added the voxl-mavlink-server service to rout mavlink messages from vvpx4, it's possible that this service is not running. Can you show the output of voxl-inspect-services on your drone.
