I was wondering how I can factory reset the seeker. I have had numerous problems trying to set it up so I just want to start afresh. 

Thanks in advance!

@utari_ais ,

Have you tried installing the latest SDK and going through the configuration steps during the SDK installation?

## Reply by utari_ais · 2024-02-27 18:29:39 UTC (in reply to Alex Kushleyev)

@Alex-Kushleyev Yes I have. For some reason, the px4-config file is always empty (the file that I have to edit the ground station's IP into), this keeps happening with multiple SDKs that I have tried installing

@utari_ais What file are you talking about? What is the file name and path?

## Reply by utari_ais · 2024-02-27 18:52:14 UTC (in reply to tom)

@tom  /etc/modalai/voxl-vision-px4.conf

I'm following this guide: https://docs.modalai.com/seeker-user-guide-network/

@utari_ais The gcs IP setting was moved a while back into `/etc/modalai/voxl-mavlink-server.conf`, look for the `primary_static_gcs_ip` field.

`voxl-vision-px4` was also renamed to `voxl-vision-hub`

@tom is there somewhere I can find the changes, the main documentation isn't updated so it is rather confusing

@utari_ais What page are you referencing?

@tom I have run into the same problem again. I am using this guide https://docs.modalai.com/qgc-wifi/

I am unable to connect the seeker to QGC. It worked last week, but now its not. I have correctly put the gcp IP setting in voxl-mavlink-server.conf and followed all the steps. 

I am also unable to connect the spektrum transmitter to the drone, I always get a bind failed error whenever I try with QGC connected.

Any help is appreciated.

@utari_ais , are you able to establish the connection from GCS (instead of voxl2 trying to connect to GCS)? As described here : https://docs.modalai.com/qgc-wifi/#initiating-connection-to-voxl-from-qgroundcontrol

## Reply by utari_ais · 2024-03-21 15:34:47 UTC (in reply to Alex Kushleyev)

@Alex-Kushleyev Nope. I have followed all the steps but nothing happens. QGC still says "Disconnected".

@utari_ais can you please make sure that both `voxl-px4` and `voxl-mavlink-server` are running?

```
voxl2:/$ voxl-inspect-services | grep mavlink
 voxl-mavlink-server      |  Enabled  |   Running   |     0.6%
voxl2:/$ voxl-inspect-services | grep voxl-px4
 voxl-px4                 | Enabled  |   Running   |    25.1%
```

@Alex-Kushleyev Here's what I see. I don't know why its not showing voxl-px4 as a service at all. ![image.png](https://forum.modalai.com/assets/uploads/files/1711467751591-image.png)

@utari_ais , you may need to run `voxl-configure-mpa` to set up the board parameters (including px4) according to your device / drone. did you do that after SDK install?

## Reply by utari_ais · 2024-03-26 17:03:54 UTC (in reply to utari_ais)

@utari_ais I remember doing this. Let me try again.

## Reply by utari_ais · 2024-04-11 16:07:02 UTC (in reply to utari_ais)

@Alex-Kushleyev is there anyway I can hard reset the drone? I think clearing it out and reinstalling might just do the trick

## Reply by tom (ModalAI staff) · 2024-04-11 17:14:09 UTC (in reply to utari_ais)

@utari_ais Since you're using a voxl1 px4 is running on the flight core not on the voxl itself like voxl2. Therefore there is no voxl-px4 service on voxl1
