      Hi I was following this guide to build PX4 binary using docker https://docs.modalai.com/voxl2-px4-build-guide/
      So far I got through the guide and was able to build a binary of the PX4 by running make modalai_voxl2_default. But the guide doesnt seem to talk about how to actually flash the firmware onto the VOXL 2. I have not developed using adb or for embedded android devices before. Can anyone help me with flashing PX4 firmware?

      Thanks.

        @AndriiHlyvko The instructions for that are actually on the voxl-px4 repository.
        https://gitlab.com/voxl-public/voxl-sdk/services/voxl-px4/-/tree/master

        This contains the wrapper that runs px4 on the VOXL2, but also the packaging and deployment scripts that make it easy to install.

          @AndriiHlyvko I just flashed firmware with a custom module to my VOXL2 using the SDK-0.9 branch of the voxl-px4 repo and the specific commit from the modalai px4-firmware repo that is included with that voxl-px4 branch. As far as I can tell this px4-firmware commit is the exact one used for the 0.9.5 platform release so it should have good compatibility with that firmware if you are using it.
