I am debugging the VIO. With voxl-logger --preset_odometry.
I see that the files are being saved in /data/voxl-logger/, but I want to download the files to my computer to analyze them in plotjuggler.

1) How can I move the log files to my SD card in the VOXL via terminal (I have no idea, and all the linux commands I also do not know)?
2) How can I get the logger to save the logs directly to the SD card? I know I can do voxl-logger and then -d, but I also dont know the directory of the SD card.

@Sem-Andeweg I don't have a VOXL w/ SD card with me at the moment but I believe the SDCard directory lives at `/mnt/sdcard`

Use the command [adb pull](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10050925/how-do-i-adb-pull-all-files-of-a-folder-present-in-sd-card) to pull files from VOXL. 

To pull /data/voxl-logger to your computer, 
```
adb pull "/data/voxl-logger"
``` 
should work

@tom thank you! I can now see it, from now I will do:
voxl-logger --preset_odometry -d /mnt/sdcard

@Chad-Sweet thank you, its now downloading the logs, it works perfectly. But I think the logs are very large, so its a little slow.

Also note that usb file transfers are much faster dealing with a single large file than hundreds of smaller ones, and the logging of camera images through voxl-logger currently saves each image in it's own file, so it's usually much faster to tar/zip a log folder and then pull the tarball.
