"make modalai_rb5-flight_default" target not found while PX4 build

[aquibrifath]

Hi i was trying to build PX4 on VOXL2 using https://gitlab.com/voxl-public/rb5-flight/rb5-flight-px4-build-docker/-/tree/master guide

when i was in the docker running make modalai_rb5-flight_default gave me the following error
root@da81ab4039ae:/usr/local/workspace/px4-firmware# make modalai_rb5-flight_default
Makefile:528: *** "Make target modalai_rb5-flight_default not found. It either does not exist or modalai_rb5-flight_default cannot be the first argument. Use 'make help|list_config_targets' to get a list of all possible [configuration] targets.". Stop.

so i ran make help to check

Use 'make list_config_targets' for a list of configuration targets.

and i noticed that modalai_rb5-flight_default is not found, can you help me with this?

@aquibrifath What version of px4 are you trying to build? After you clone the repository, which branch are you checking out?

[aquibrifath]

@Eric-Katzfey oh i forgot to add that, tried the latest version, 1.13.0 stable and using the main branch

[Eric Katzfey]

@aquibrifath You have to clone this repo: https://github.com/modalai/px4-firmware.git and checkout branch voxl-dev.

[aquibrifath]

Will try that, thank you

[aquibrifath]

Hello, how do you burn PX4 to VOXL2? using make upload or QGC?

[Eric Katzfey]

@aquibrifath Our "wrapper" project is this: https://gitlab.com/voxl-public/voxl-sdk/services/voxl-px4. You can use master or dev branch to get the latest. This project will create a debian package that you can push to target and install.

[aquibrifath]

do we need VOXL suite or anything of that sort? I just want to upload the lastest PX4 and do a manual flight on VOXL2 to make sure my hardware is running okay, I am trying the PX4 wrapper that you suggested

[aquibrifath]

@Eric-Katzfey Okay, i did everything in https://gitlab.com/voxl-public/voxl-sdk/services/voxl-px4, but it did not create any debain package, can you help me locate it?
As far as i have understood, the PX4 images are build inside PX4/built

[Eric Katzfey]

@aquibrifath You can always get our latest PX4 dev package from our package feed. wget http://voxl-packages.modalai.com/dists/qrb5165/dev/binary-arm64/voxl-px4_1.4.24-202208252217_arm64.deb

[Eric Katzfey]

@aquibrifath The package is created when you run the ./make_package.sh deb script.

[aquibrifath]

@Eric-Katzfey all the packages here http://voxl-packages.modalai.com/dists are for arm64 architecture, am i supposed to run this on VOXL or my PC?

[aquibrifath]

@Eric-Katzfey okay i ran the ./make_package.sh and it created a voxl-px4_1.4.16_arm64.deb, should i send to VOXL2 via adb push and unpack it via dpkg?

[Eric Katzfey]

@aquibrifath Yep!

[aquibrifath]

directly in the main folder or do i have to do it in the sub folder? @Eric-Katzfey
