The reason for the question is it would be helpful to test software command API's on the VOXL-m500 such as MAVSDK more intensively without risking accidents

@Pey-Astig Yes  it's possible.  We'll have some docs  up in a few days but connecting via USB to the flight controller,  setting airframe to HIL, and adjusting these settings should get you going:
