Hello, I just purchased a VOXL 2 flight deck with 5G modem support.($3k) I was wondering if the VOXL 2 comes with PWM control? Or do I need an extension board?

RE: Video streaming delay
I also have the same issue, I have used the portal and QGroundControl to view camera feed but there is a delay in both, enough so that it is not reliable to fly depending on the feed alone. I have tried disabling the portal and the docker to see if it would help but not much of a difference. If someone could help us figure out a way to stream the Hires RGB camera in 4k resolution with minimal delay if possible? Or even just lower the delay with 1080p resolution?
Please and Thank You. -
RE: VOXL FLIGHT connection to LuxF7HD
LuxF7HD is a betaflight flight controller. https://rpg.ifi.uzh.ch/docs/IROS18_Falanga.pdf developers from the university at zurich were able to bridge the betaflight controller to the onboard computer. we think we have the wiring portion done, but we need to somehow send the parameters changes from the voxl to the betaflight controller via a serial port. we are using serial port j10012 currently. please let us if you have any ideas on how to bridge the two

RE: VOXL FLIGHT connection to LuxF7HD
Thank you for the quick reply. I have successfully setup the wiring portion. I was wondering if there is a guide to show me how to modify the code to use a different UART?

VOXL FLIGHT connection to LuxF7HD
Can someone guide me in this process? I am trying to use a Betaflight flight controller instead of the PX4 onboard flight controller. Is there a guide available for this type of setup?

vrpn_client_ros, How to install on VOXL-Flight?
Re: Using Motion Capture Systems (Optitrack) for Position Estimation
I have seen people use the vrpn package along with other packages to stream data from motion capture systems such as VICON. Would someone please help me get started with how to Download this package on my VOXL-Flight-Deck?

RE: First Flight Help On VOXL Flight Deck.
I have done a first flight using a controller and the drone is responding fine. I wanted to use Motion capture to provide the Pose data, is there a way to do this on the VOXL?

Getting VICON data for VOXL Flight
How can I get VICON data? How would I download pyvicon or pymavlink? I am currently using a docker to run kinetic ROS and when I try to install using Python3 I get errors. Please help me to get started with flying my drone autonomously for the first time.

First Flight Help On VOXL Flight Deck.
Can someone please help me with my first flight? I setup a roskinetic docker and used the mavros_test example that was provided online. However I am unable to fly the drone in figure eight motion. I am able to see the rostopic list from host pc but nothing is being published on the topics.
My goal is to run a custom Python script that uses motion capture system to provide pose data over vrpn_client_ros for hover and land. I started with the tutorial first but because I could not get the drone to take off I am now stuck. Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thank You.P.S My drone is able to arm via QGroundControl over UDP connection.
