      Good afternoon,
      Sensors and Cameras - Sentinel.

      Consider the following Sentinel version MRB-D0006-4-V1-C11-M7 [1]:

      1. Camera: What are the ports (which connector?) and communication configs (I2C, SPI, UART, etc) supported for additional external camera with gimbal?
        a. There is evidence of gimbal use in the manual, but in the m500 version [2].
        b. I need support to clarify how to setup gimbal in Sentinel. For example, m500 uses the VOXL-Flight with connector J1007 - (PIN 6, 7, and 😎 [2], what about Sentinel?;
        c. Also, about thermal cameras, please, confirm the setup ports and pins to the sentinel [6,7];
      2. Rangefinder: In the manual #processing-specs section of Sentinel there is information about the Rangefinder [3]. How can I do the setup of the following sensors;
        a. Maxsonar ultrasonic sensor [4], ports and configs;
        b. And, Lidar [5];

      This help topic on forum is to assist in the acquisition of the drone, and all the requirement components to enable its use with the sensors listed above. The Sentinel manual [1] describe that almost all the ports/configuration already have a pre-defined function used [6,9].

        Hi Adriano, there is no support for gimbal on Sentinel. Sentinel is a software development platform. You can definitely modify it, but you'll be doing the custom software development to enable the features you want to advance

          Thank you Chad.

          For Sentinel version MRB-D0006-4-V1-C11-M7, what are the ports and communication configs (I2C, SPI, UART, ???) supported for external camera?
