Hi MOdalai,

Do you guys have documentation on how to set up this GPS with the Voxl2 board?

Thanks,

Jeff

@Jeffrey-Mao Assuming you are intending to use it with PX4 running on VOXL 2 you would need to set GPS to AUTODETECT in the `/etc/modalai/voxl-px4.conf` configuration file.

More detailed GPS documentation would definitely help, especially for troubleshooting setup issues and understanding configuration differences between modules. Saves a lot of guesswork during integration.
