    Hello,

    I like the easy setup of voxl-configure-mpa. I would like to add my own vehicle to this setup so that on new VOXLs I can simply type

    voxl-configure-mpa, and it will load up all of the services I need for my specific vehicle.

    Would i just need to modify voxl-configure-sku and voxl-configure-mpa in gitlab?

    Also, if I wanted to have voxl-configure-mpa execute my own scripts afterwards (let's say to setup docker) what is the recommended way to do that?

      I would probably need to change voxl-configurator: https://gitlab.com/voxl-public/voxl-sdk/utilities/voxl-configurator

        Plan so far for setup

        1. clone voxl-configure on gitlab

        2. add my own case statement to voxl-configure-mpa

        3. If I wanted to add my own script to run after, I could probably add it after voxl-check-calibration

        4. modify voxl-configure-sku with the board that I am using and the camera setup I have482ed50c-2d31-4752-9289-386c196a375d-image.png

        5. I would recompile voxl-configurator myself (forming a deb file)

        6. Plug in voxl2

        7. Flash most recent SDK

        8. copy the voxl-configurator deb file onto the device and install it

        9. run voxl-configure-sku

        10. run voxl-configure-mpa and select my custom added drone
