Hi ModalAI Team and Community,
I am currently working with the VOXL-Flight (Flight Deck) platform. I am aware that this product is now marked as EOL on the technical documentation site, and I am finding it difficult to locate the comprehensive guides that used to be available.

Could you please share the legacy documentation or point me to an archive specifically covering the following topics for VOXL-Flight:

1. Indoor Flight Configuration: How to set up Visual Inertial Odometry (VIO) to fly without GPS.
2. Camera Usage:  Documentation on accessing and configuring the cameras on the Flight Deck (Stereo, Tracking, and Hi-res cameras).
3. Autonomous Navigation: Guides on setting up auto-navigation and obstacle avoidance using the onboard VOXL architecture.

I really appreciate any PDFs, archived links, or guidance you can provide to help me get this system airborne indoors.

Thank you!

Documentation for the flight deck platform can be found here: [https://docs.modalai.com/voxl2-flight-deck/](https://docs.modalai.com/voxl2-flight-deck/).

The user guide section provides links to using obstacle avoidance and VIO, that page is here[https://docs.modalai.com/voxl2-flight-deck-userguide-software/](https://docs.modalai.com/voxl2-flight-deck-userguide-software/].

The camera setup for the setup is here [https://docs.modalai.com/voxl2-flight-deck-userguide-connections/](https://docs.modalai.com/voxl2-flight-deck-userguide-connections/).

The documentation on this website should also be helpful, there are specific sections about the sdk that may be helpful, including the voxl sdk camera server and other features.

Hope this helps,
Robbie

@Robbie-McCue Thanks for the links. However, I noticed these guide me to the VOXL 2 documentation. Since I am using the original VOXL Flight (Gen 1), are these instructions compatible? I am concerned the software commands might be different.

@minhthinh Documentation for the original VOXL Flight can be found [here](https://docs.modalai.com/voxl-flight/). The guide will link back to the original [VOXL](https://docs.modalai.com/voxl-quickstarts/) and the original [Flight Core](https://docs.modalai.com/flight-core/) as those are the boards it was built around. You can also refer to the release notes of the previous sdks to see what was available in the specific release that you are using
