    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

    root@da81ab4039ae:/usr/local/workspace/px4-firmware# make help

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

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

              @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.

                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

                  @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

                    @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

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