Hello. I’m also considering purchasing the ModalAI Starling 2, so I have a question.

I would like to know whether the development environment supports options needed for research and development, such as 3D LiDAR, cameras, ROS2 support, and SDK installation.
Additionally, please let us know whether developer access to sensor data (LiDAR, Camera, IMU, etc.) is available and whether there is a method for doing so.
**Hardware:** (board / drone / SKU, serial # if you have it)

**Software version:** (paste the output of `voxl-version`)

**Configuration / services:** (paste the output of `voxl-inspect-services`)

**What I am trying to do:**

**What actually happens:** (error messages, behavior)

**Steps to reproduce:**

**Logs / pictures:** (attach files; PX4 logs -> https://logs.px4.io)

Most of this can be answered by our documentation here: https://docs.modalai.com/. If after reading through that you still have any specific questions feel free to reach out here on the forum. The short answer to most of your questions is "yes".
