Hello,

We are testing the Rb5 outdoor in position mode.
We have the GPS coordinates but the drone keeps drifting.
Questions:

1. Why is it drifting?
2. is the drone using only VIO, or GPS, or both when flying in position mode?
3. How can we use GPS and VIO in position mode?

Notes: We have flashed the drone. What are the parameters needing to be set again?

Best wishes,

Hi,
I have the following 5G rb5

system-image: 1.7.1-M0052-14.1a-perf-nightly-20231025
kernel: #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu Oct 26 05:24:02 UTC 2023 4.19.125

hw version: M0052

voxl-suite: 1.1.2

current IP: wlan0: 192.168.1.35

I have a motion capture system, and would like to send data from it to the RB5.
What are the required settings on the rb5?

Best wishes,

1. What kind of upgrade is necessary for this Rb5? Should we upgrade the sdk?
   we can run ros2 foxy with it. The dds is also working.

2. How did you build this ros2 packages and nodes

Thank you

I have the following Rb5

Question:
Which development environment is suitable to build ROS2 packages and nodes for the RB5?
I have listed the following environment so far

1)VScode ROS2 environment

2)Voxl-emulator 

3)RB5-flight emulator 

4)docker pull arm64v8/ros 

Thanks

Thank you.
Let me have a look.

Hi,
We have the following Rb5:
system-image: 1.7.1-M0052-14.1a-perf-nightly-20231025
kernel: #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu Oct 26 05:24:02 UTC 2023 4.19.125
hw version: M0052
voxl-suite: 1.1.2

Here is our problem:
We have a mavlink based GCS and would like to get the position of the drone in the fixed frame defined by the QR-code like tags. We are connecting over port 14550, but can only get the PX4 local frame. The tag information is set in the tag locations file and the appropriate parameters in the voxl-vision-hub.conf are also set.
Question: How can we get the current position of the drone in the fixed frame defined by the tags, preferably over mavlink? We're assuming there's some extra config somewhere that we are missing, since clearly the incoming setpoints can be translated between the coordinate systems.

Thanks

Where can I get this docker image?
Do you have a link?

Thanks,

How to build-compile FOXY ROS2 packages and nodes for this RB5 ?
What kind of environment can be used to run colcon build to get ROS2 packages and nodes for the Rb5?

Thanks!

After flashing, I cannot connect to the QGC.

After setting up the IP address, I try to connect via UDP using the IP and port 14550, this is what I get

drone(connected) is the one not connecting to QGC.

@tahawaru

And in the flashing process, which number should be chosen from this list:

After flashing and setting up the IP address, I can ssh in the drone but I cannot connect to the drone to the QGC.

The port setting is 14550.

Any help on this?
