    • RE: QVIO unstable flight. Please help!

      @zauberflote1 @tom Hi Zauber and Tom! I have done everything you have recommended, I updated to version 1.5.0 of the SDK, I also did a complete calibration of both the cameras and the IMU and the PX4, I have checked the extrinsics file and it seems correct, I leave all the information I have right now. But I have not been able to get the drone to fly in a stable way, when taking off you get an extremely unstable flight, in which it can start to go up or down or move to the sides, this is extremely dangerous for a critical operation and in an indoor place, because generally there is not much margin for error, I need to solve this urgently! if you need something else let me know!

      to finish I have also observed that at the time of take off the points are not fixed before take off, if not just when the drone is armed, I am sometimes results in a mismatch, for example in the image that I show below, I only armed the drone, there if the points appeared, but as I left the drone only armed (not lift it) I could see that the position of the drone began to go negative infinititamente, when not even the drone was moving.

      @tom Thanks Tom, I will wait to see if someone else joins, as this has blocked our development, thank you very much.

    • RE: QVIO unstable flight. Please help!

      @tom Hello Tom! Yes, I understand this, but which one is more accurate? which one should I decide on in an Indoor environment? we have the Starling 2 triple tracking.

      Can you help me by answering the other questions? or is there someone in the ModalAI team who can help me?

      I have left all my settings there, and as you can see QVIO is set as the main VIO.

    • QVIO unstable flight. Please help!

      Hello! very good morning! I am trying to develop a safe and efficient solution to control the drone in a simple way, the idea is to manage the drone through actions with the Mavlink server (I already have it, I can take off the drone from QGC) the problem is to get stability, the drone flies most of the time in an unstable way, i have configured the voxl-vision-hub with qvio, and i have also tried with ov, but in none of the two is stable, i take off the drone in position mode and what it does most of the times is not to keep its position, but to start flying uncontrolled, upwards or sideways.

      As you know this is totally inefficient and not applicable to the need I have, since basically the main thing is a safe and stable flight.

      I would like you to help me first to understand the difference between QVIO, VIO and OV (I have not seen anything in the documentation that explains well the difference between these three).

      And secondly to see if you can help me to be able to give the necessary configuration to be able to obtain a safe accuracy.

      I am going to leave you the configurations I have and the tests I have done.

      finally I share with you the tests I have done:

      1. take off the drone in the place where I connect the battery (failure)
      2. move the drone manually until I saw that the z-axis coincided more or less with the movement it made, position the drone at 0, and take off (here I got more stability)
      3. reset qvio and ov, after powering up the drone, the qvio was accurate but the ov was moving crazily on the plane when static (failure)

      here are some images of the inconsistencies between qvio and ov

    • RE: Cant use Mavsdk! please Help!

      @Eric-Katzfey Hey Eric! I finally solved the problem by setting these variables:
      RC=EXTERNAL in voxl-px4.conf
      and
      px4-param set COM_RC_IN_MODE 0
      px4-param set COM_RC_OVERRIDE 1
      px4-param set COM_ARM_WO_GPS 1
      px4-param set COM_RC_LOSS_T 30.0

      This way I was able to make the takeoff autonomous, and also to have manual control for safety.

      Now the problem I have is about the qvio, in several situations (most) ends up being very unstable, it makes erratic movements, like going much higher than the takeoff, as I see it seems something of decalibration, but how to standardize this to work well always, because the qvio so unstable is dangerous, what do you recommend me? or should I make a new thread for this question?
      thanks in advance!

    • RE: Cant use Mavsdk! please Help!

      @Eric-Katzfey Hi Erick! thanks for answering, yes my drone has GPS, we bought the Starling 2 with the most powerful construction (MRB-D0014-4-C27-M0-T0-K3), anyway, our flights will be indoor, although the tests I'm doing them from my studio, that despite being in a building, should get gps, I say this because I compare it with a Mavic 2 that if you get GPS right here, in the plotter of the portal I see activity but strangely says gps: 0, do you require to show you something specifically?

      Because this has stopped our development I was thinking about turning it around to Mavros, to see if I get a different result.

      The Workflow I have proposed is:

      voxl-mission-manager (our service) -> sends takeoff and puts the drone in hold state sends waypoints -> mapper extended to receive waypoints instead of a plan to a point -> runs mission -> in turn the manager monitors the mission and at certain waypoints activates and deactivates the tflite server -> when the mission ends it runs RTL from Mapper -> manager activates precise landing with Apriltags.

      all this we want to do autonomously, from takeoff to landing, is it possible or too ambitious?
      thanks for your answers!

    • RE: YoloV8 Custom problem

      @Alex-Kushleyev Hey Alex, thanks for your reply, I managed to run the model by adding a specific helper, also converting my model several times to achieve the necessary parameters, the only problem I have now is performance, it runs at about 5fps, it is trained with yolovo8M, I think that may be a factor.

      .....

      i also made my own service that communicates with the docker-mavsdk to be able to send waypoints to the mapper (extend the plan to a point) and trigger commands to the tflite server between waypoints. but it does not work mainly because I have not been able to send instructions successfully to docker-mavsdk, from qgcontrol when I give arm I get this: MAV_CMD_COMPONENT_ARM_DISARM command temporarily rejected... this has me very blocked because I need to build this solution for a precision application.

      please help!

    • Starling 2 Addons and more

      Hi! I am trying to adapt Starling 2 to the operations I have with my clients.

      For this I need to know first if the front camera is a camera that is used for the obstacle avoidance system and VIO, or if it is just a RGB camera that I can point downwards, so that I can run my own models on this camera, of course without affecting the obstacle avoidance system.

      If not, can I put an additional camera pointing downwards, so I can run my own YOLO model on it?

      I also need to know if I can put two lidars or ragefinders to be able to know the precise height up and down of the drone.

      Finally, I also need to protect the drone from the conditions in which it operates, can I build a case to wrap all the electronics, besides that, protect it from humidity and other factors, is this possible, is there a case I can buy for this?

      The idea is to be able to have a final product, adapting this great drone for these needs.

      thank you very much in advance
