    • RE: Seeker Factory Reset

      @VOXL-Flight What happens when you restart camera-server?

      systemctl restart voxl-camera-server
      

      Are all the camera cables in good condition? Intact wires?

      You may also want to re-configuring mpa:

      voxl-configure-mpa -p -f seeker -b blue -c 7 --fc yes
      

      If it comes down to it, you can flash the Voxl with a system image & Voxl-suite.
      Select wipe & you'll start with a clean slate. Instructions can be found here
      *After flashing you will need to calibrate the cameras, both stereo & tracking: here

    • RE: Board Orientation and Offsets

      IMU's can be found here.

      Through QGC, the offsets can be adjusted: here

      You'll have to configure the extrinsic files as well to match the rotation of the board

      /etc/modalai/extrinsics.conf
      

      Hope that helps!

    • RE: Seeker Factory Reset

      Did camera-server work before? Trying to grasp why it's not working; what's the history/what were you trying to attempt?
      What config of Seeker do you have? Hi-Res, TOF, & Tracking?

    • RE: Seeker Factory Reset

      Yes, depends on what you're trying to reset though. There are several options but before that can you explain your situation that you're having? Might be possible to resolve without a reset.
      Thanks

    • RE: Position Flight is not available after firmware update

      Ah ok. The reason it says missing camera config and why you may not be able to see local_position_ned is with a flash & complete wipe, the camera calibration files get wiped as well. You will need to calibrate the cameras.
      You can check to see if they're still there by:

      ls/data/modalai
      

      There should be intrinsics & extrinsics files for right/left/stereo & tracking.
      If they're not there then for sure you need to calibrate the cameras.
      You can find the link here

    • RE: Position Flight is not available after firmware update

      Which system image & suite did you upgrade to?
      Can you further elaborate what you mean in Mavlink what the other coordinates doing crazy things?

      Which camera config do you have? TOF or Hires?
      For configuring mpa try:

      voxl-configure-mpa -p -f seeker -b blue -c 3 --fc yes
      

      Above is for the config with Hires, Stereo & Tracking
      A powercylce is needed after this

      voxl-configure-mpa -p -f seeker -b blue -c 7 --fc yes
      

      Above is for TOF, Stereo & Tracking
      A powercycle is needed after this

      Would also configure the cameras

      voxl-configure-cameras
      

      In Mavlink, inspecting the local_position_ned, if the x & y are zeroed out then that means that vio didn't start up properly. Most likely one of the pipes didn't initiate or crashed. A powercycle usually fixes this, otherwise you may want to try rebooting voxl-vision-px4

      systemctl restart voxl-vision-px4

    • RE: Cooling question

      Yes, it is a good idea to cool the Voxl-Flight with some sort of cooling device.

      We have not performed comprehensive environmental testing, but for Voxl 0-55C Ambient, Guaranteed by Test. Enclosures or other structures which raise the ambient temperature will impact this range. The performance will be better with cooler temps.

      Hope this helps

    • RE: RB5 motor does not spin even after successful arm

      @sesajap perfect. Was anything changed from when the drone armed and the motors spun to the next day?

      The RB5 platform px4 params are there mostly for reference in case other params were changed. Since they are just a reference they contain some params that will cause some interference with the flight/arming.

      Since they were loaded, the only way to wipe those params would be to factory flash it and only load the helper files regarding the RB5.

      Flashing the system image when loading the platform file is not a routine procedure. However, it is necessary in this case for trouble shooting.

    • RE: RB5 motor does not spin even after successful arm

      Can you double check that the cable going from the esc to the RB5 is still plugged in? If this cable is unplugged the motors won't spin but QGC will say it's armed.

      Another note is that the RB5 only gets the helper files from the px4 parameters.
      In RB5, the helper files, load the indoor or outdoor depending where you are flying and the Spektrum dx6e if that is the transmitter you're using.
      If the platform files were loaded you may have to flash the system image to restart the drone.

    • RE: Spectrum failed to enter binding mode

      Does your RB5 have a binding board? You can check if you have this connector. Should be on the right-hand side: 20220613_185010.jpg
      There's two different procedures for binding depending on your config.

      If you turn on the transmitter first and then the drone, does the satellite have a steady orange light?

      Can you try the binding procedure with the drone powered with a battery or run with a power supply? Might not be getting enough juice with just the ac power adapter.
      If the Spektrum satellite is not flashing orange, it hasn't started the binding protocol. Until it starts flashing then you can attempt to bind with the transmitter.
