Please verify the front of the VOXL Flight is where the camera connectors are
-
Hello All, this is a simple question. We have a VOXL flight v1, and are having issues with the orientation settings in QGC. Can I verify that the front of the VOXL flight is where the connectors for the cameras are (ie furthest from the flight core), and the v-shape of the flight core is the back? I'm having trouble finding this in the documentation anywhere.

That's correct, if you think of the voxl portion of the voxl-flight as an extension of the flight core, it is the same as seen here: https://docs.modalai.com/flight-core-datasheets-functional-description/#orientation

Ok. This makes sense. I must have originally seen that during setup but somehow had trouble finding that again. It might be helpful to have an arrow added to the functional description of the voxl flight somewhere.
So if we are mounting our flight 90 degrees clockwise this should be 'YAW90' in the orientation settings for QGC correct? Our GPS/Mag are pointing straight ahead though.

Yes, you are correct. You can reference link for more info. Towards the bottom of that page it goes into more details of how to set it accordingly. Hope that helps

@Adrian-Hidalgo Thank you for the reply. It's good to have confirmation. That is the link we were going from and I have used in the past.
