Hi,
We have 4 strling2-max drone all with 1.6.4~alpha2 from factory.
One of the drones beacame a brick and I was doing the unbricking procedure.
The only release available in developer site is 1.6.3 so now not all my drones have the same version.
my goal is to make 1.6.3  - > 1.6.4~alpha2 and align all drones
1.6.4~alpha2 is not available in developer site. 
what can I do ? it tried apt update && apt upgrade on drone with connction to internet it failed. 
MRB-D0012-4-V3-C28-T8-M36-X0
MRB-D0012-4-V2-C28-T8-M36-X0

see sku is v3 in 1.6.4~alpha2 and V2 in 1.6.3

another important question. we intend to assemble the depth camera and change configuration to C29. We noticed the front cameras are moving to a new location with offset regarding the symetric axes. do we need to somehow update vio intrinsix files ? if yes how should it be done ? 

Thanks,

Roy

@RoyAzriel , we will check about the SDK.. I see how that's an issue for you.

Regarding extrinsics when upgrading your Starling 2 Max from C28 to C29, the different extrinsics already exist (and the source can be found here : https://gitlab.com/voxl-public/voxl-sdk/utilities/voxl-mpa-tools/-/tree/master/misc_files/usr/share/modalai/extrinsic_configs) . Once you run `voxl-configure-mpa`, then the correct extrinsics should be loaded, or you can replace the file manually (it goes to `/etc/modalai/` on voxl2)

@RoyAzriel I'll send you an email with a link to the latest SDK. It is largely untested on starling2-max which is why it isn't available on our public downloads page yet.

@RoyAzriel 1.6.4 release is tested on Starling 2 now, go ahead and use that from the link I emailed you.
