Hello, the voxl-camera-server in my RB5 Flight randonmly crashes. I can see when I inspect the services a huge amount of CPU consumption from voxl-camera-server:

The voxl-camera-server can reach cpu consumption up to 170%. Then randomly stops running. When I use the journalctl command I get this output:

The SDK version I am using is this one:

Could this be solved if I flash the rb5 image to the latest SDK version for the rb5?

Thanks!

@martygp95 I can't promise that it'll fix the issue but it would be a good idea to upgrade to the latest RB5 SDK as there will be a lot of bug fixes.

It's possible that there is an issue with the camera flex for your tracking camera but upgrading to the latest SDK can help us single that out

@tom I tried to upgrade to 0.9.5 version (the latest for RB5Flight in the releases page) but I see the voxl-camera-server is same version as the 0.9.4 sdk (version 1.3.5); the drone is still crashing the voxl-camera-server after the upgrade. Is there any other more updated sdk for the RB5 flight (M0052 hardware)? or at least for the voxl-camera-server package that I could try? thanks

Hi Tom, 

What would be the best approach to debug this camera flex? 

Thank you,
