Starling 2 not following navigation path
-
Hello @Cliff-Wong,
The figure 8 no longer works. It is now crashing into the netting in the room after starting the figure 8 mode. Though, it did in the past.
Here is the screen recording as it was happening Link
I also notice that it seems a sensor on the bottom has come loose due to the crashes sustained while trying to test the navigation. As well as the battery retention clips has broken off. Link
@greg_s That would explain a lot what's happening.
If you start fresh and connect to the drone with voxl-portal and goto the VIO tab/menu option, you should be able to pick up the drone and perform a bench test.
Considering Figure 8 is not working, you will need to inspect the front and downward camera, tighten/remount any loose parts and possibly check camera focus & calibration.
Worse case if the forward camera is good and not changed from factory, you can edit/etc/modalai/vio_cam.confon the drone and disabled the faulty camera (disabled the down camera).
You'll have degraded precision (mainly bad vio in fast yaw motions), but should be able to perform a figure 8 and should get you running until you repair that bottom sensor.
