    That FW version looks good to go, but the screen shot above looks like it's not showing all the typical data.

    What about the MAVLink serial setup? https://gitlab.com/voxl-public/flight-core-px4/px4-parameters/-/blob/master/helpers/mavlink_serial_ports.params#L18

    This would affect the communications between FlightCore (PX4) and VOXL and then ultimately what comes over WiFI to QGC

      @modaltb no data is missing. I had just cropped the image to show you the just the important part. Here's the full image.

        Sorry, I meant the Serial/MAVLink setup, which may affect this:

        42eab064-0f2b-4e3d-b4fd-5ac3e1922303-image.png

        Then in MAVLink inspector, you see more data:

          Actually, you want to select LOCAL_POSITION_NED to see the VIO data, I didn't have this until I loaded the https://gitlab.com/voxl-public/flight-core-px4/px4-parameters/-/blob/master/helpers/ekf2_indoor_vio.params

            @modaltb We have already loaded the ekf2_indoor_vio.params.
            Also I'm getting all these data that you just shared. I'm getting the local position ned, but the x and y are zero. Again the point to be noted here is that (also mentioned in the original post), tha I'm connected via USB cable to qgc. When I'm just over the wifi, I get the right odometry but the x and y of local position ned is still 0 one.png two.png three.png

              @gauravshukla914 said in Not going in Position mode:

              "qgc_ip": "NULL",

              Looking at your config file in first post above, I'm not sure how you are getting a connection over WiFi without the IP address configured?

              If you run voxl-version, can you paste the output here?

              And also, can you run voxl-vision-px4 manually from command line and paste output here?

              Thanks, sorry for missing the first data points.

                  @gauravshukla914 Are you attempting to use VOA or just VIO?

                      @gauravshukla914 Okay, in that case we will want to get you updated to System Image 3.2.0 / voxl-suite 0.3.4.

                      Before we do that though, I want to make sure you are able to backup your camera calibration files so that you won't need to re-calibrate.

                      In order to do this you can use the voxl-backup utility which should currently be installed on your VOXL as it is included in the voxl-utils package.

                      First you will use voxl-backup -b BACKUP_PATH in order to save your camera calibration files to the specified path. Then, I would recommend pulling these files off of your voxl using adb pull BACKUP_PATH HOST_PC_DIR so that you have them saved for the future.

                      You can then go ahead and flash System Image 3.2.0, located here.

                      After you finish flashing you can adb push your camera cal files back onto your VOXL and use voxl-backup -r BACKUP_ROOT in order to restore them to their correct locations.

                        @tom I did that. I flashed with the image that you asked me to. Unfortunately the problem is still there. I'm able to see the odometry on my terminal once I do the "voxl-version-px4 -o". But no luck with the QgroundControl. Basically the same problem!

                        adb shell
                        / # voxl-version

                                @gauravshukla914 see this post here. In there case they had the same symptom. To fix, they made sure voxl-imu-server and voxl-camera-server were running on boot and feeding the data to voxl-qvio-server

                                  @Chad-Sweet I made sure this, but still no luck with the local position ned and its still failing to go into position mode. I have attached the screenshots.
                                  @modaltb @tom @Jeremy-Schmidt is there a way we can set up a screen share for this? I think it'd be great if we can do that and may be together we can come up with a solution for this.qgc.png voxl.png

                                    Can you report what your EKF2_AID_MASK is set to in PX4 and post the value? thanks.

                                      @Cliff-Wong its set to 280. I have also posted the PX4 param above somewhere in the beginning and you can have a look at that too.

                                        Have you changed the firmware in some way? This is not normal behavior. You could try going to original firmware and settings: https://docs.modalai.com/flight-core-firmware/

                                          thanks, if you are using standard firmware as Chad mentioned in the following post, PX4 (not voxl) selectively stops certain position updates in order to trigger specific logic in ECL. Saying that, the behavior you're seeing appears just like aid mask (280) is being ignored. If you watch this: https://drive.google.com/file/d/15MPZeez2zgfBQySNgxlsEqq3Ttj34b7M/view?usp=sharing I think I recreated your behavior as described (note "afla" = udp). Thus, you may want to explicitly set aid_mask/reboot to confirm the same behavior which will help us narrow down the problem to mavlink (possible crc issue) or px4-general logic.

                                          If you are using custom firmware, it very likely the aid mask param is not setting the internal modes properly.
