<![CDATA[Swarming Oriented Platform]]>I have a set of Sentinels and a set of Crazyflies. I like the Sentinels for the onboard compute, sensor suite and all the built-in functionality that comes with the voxl SDK, but I've found it difficult to manage networking multiple together and managing as swarms.

The crazyflies are obviously less robust, but they're cheaper and much easier to scale swarms of because of the existing open source swarming software packages.

I was just curious if ModalAI has ever looked at producing a more swarming-oriented platform. Something like a scaled-down version of Starling 2 with more scalable networking options. Seems like a hole in the NDAA-compliant UAS market. It's easier for us to purchase COTS systems than build our own so I just wanted to see if that would be a potential option on the horizon or if ModalAI is sticking to single agent mission-type platforms

And which positioning system are you using?
