    • VIO and GPS in position mode

      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,

    • Rb5 changing IP from 5G modem intermittently

      Hi,

      I have several Rb5, with the following configuration

      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: 192.168.1.31

      I have a SIM card in each drone, one of them is having an IP change from the 5G modem intermittently.
      Do you know what could be the issue?

      The other drones are not having the issue.

      Best wishes,

    • RE: How to build-compile FOXY ROS2 packages and nodes for RB5

      @Zachary-Lowell-0

      I have already install the foxy.
      I'm building ROS2 nodes now on a container on Vscode on my computer.
      I want to push the build in the RB5 and run it their, just like building figure 8 out of the Rb5 and then push the build in the Rb5 to run it.

      Do I have to push the whole container instance or just the src folder.

      I pushed already the src folder via adb push, and it generated the error above.

      Thanks

      I just pushed the src folder in the rb5 after the colcon in VSCode.
      How do you do the following?
      "
      pushing your docker instance to the voxl2, then deploying the docker container, and running ros2 run command inside the docker container correct?
      "

      @teddy-zaremba

      Hi
      Thank for your support.
      I have used a docker environment in VsCode(ROS2-foxy + PX4).
      I have colcon built a package, and I have pushed the build into the Rb5.
      When running the ros2 run xx_pkg_py py_node
      the code starts executing, then through an error regarding ros_idl.

      Any help on this?
      Is this to do with the pushing of the packages into the Rb5?

      Here is the error:

    • Motion capture with Rb5

      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

      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?

    • RE: Which development environment is suitable to build ROS2 packages and nodes for the RB5

      @Zachary-Lowell-0

      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
        https://gitlab.com/voxl-public/voxl-sdk/utilities/voxl-mpa-to-ros2

      Thank you

      I have listed the following environment so far

      1)VScode ROS2 environment

      2)Voxl-emulator 
      
      3)RB5-flight emulator 
      
      4)docker pull arm64v8/ros

    • Positions reporting issue between voxl and Px4

      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
