Starling 2 MAX with position flight mode with VOXL
-

When I try to fly Starling 2 MAX with position mode with VOXL.
,It is not possible to fly with error [No valid local position estimate].I checked VIO status with VOXL portal.
It's QUAL=100% Ithink it's no problem.I have no idea to fix it and need advieses.

Starling 2 Max comes out of the box with PX4's EKF2 configured for GPS outdoor flight.
To fly indoors with VIO only you need to modify PX4's EKF2 parameters in QGC or with the voxl-configure-px4-params utility. In the EKF2_helpers menu, select "indoor_vio.params"

@James-Strawson said in Starling 2 MAX with position flight mode with VOXL:
NAME CURRENT NEW
[1] EKF2_MAG_TYPE 0.0 5.0
[2] EKF2_EV_CTRL 0.0 15.0
[3] EKF2_HGT_REF 1.0 3.0
[4] EKF2_GPS_CTRL 7.0 0.0
[5] EKF2_EV_QMIN 0.0 1.0I check the param that you recommend , but It is not fixed.
Starling 2MAX is already set same param.Should I check another point?
