Question:
Which development environment is suitable to build ROS2 packages and nodes for the RB5?
I have listed the following environment so far

1)VScode ROS2 environment

2)Voxl-emulator 

3)RB5-flight emulator 

4)docker pull arm64v8/ros

Thanks

  1. What kind of upgrade is necessary for this Rb5? Should we upgrade the sdk?
    we can run ros2 foxy with it. The dds is also working.

  2. How did you build this ros2 packages and nodes

Thank you

As for the best ROS2 environment you can run via docker, I always leverage ros humble docker image to program on. Since you are rurnning SDK 1.1.2 I am unsure if the dds micro-agent is on that SDK - if the goal is to just use docker on the board and leverage ros2, I would recommend:

docker pull ros:humble-ros-base-jammy

OR

docker pull ros:humble-ros-desktop-jammy
