I have a VOXL2, with a MicroHard modem breakout board attached. I also have a USB hub that is independently powered and daisy chained to the MicorHard breakout USB port so that my VOXL has more USB connections available.

Observing dmesg, I randomly see that all of my USB devices get disconnected, one by one, followed by a reset of the MicroHard USB chip. I have checked for loose cables, and also can not force this issue to occur by inducing vibrations.

Is anyone aware of a bug or common issue that could cause the VOXL2 to force reset down stream USB devices?

Hello,

I am attempting to integrate Hitech UAVCAN servos onto either a Pixracer or Control Zero FC. Using the latest firmware and configuring the appropriate parameters (according to various documentation from HiTech and Ardupilot) I have had zero luck getting the zero to respond to any FC servo functions. Is there currently support for this on these FC? Am i completely out in left field with my question? Any information is greatly appreciated!

Thank you for the additional information.

While the OMX encoder is not currently working, are you aware of any resources on the VOXL2 that could allow me to stream low latency (<.25s) video data? Using GStreamer or FFMPEG or any other tools? Thanks.

@Eric-Katzfey Any updates on this matter?

Hello,

I acquired a beta version of the VOXL2. Now I am looking forward to purchasing the released version of the board, but I was curious if there were any detailed release notes specific to hardware updates that may have occurred between releases? I see the software is being regularly updated with documentation, but I couldn't find anything like that for hardware.

Hello,
I am working with the VOXL2 and the FLIR Boson 640 camera. I have the FLIR connected via the Microhard expansion board. When using Gstreamer and the OMX encoder to stream camera data, the resolution of the video is fine on the first frame, but immediately degrades to a very poor quality. I have tried streaming multiple resolution settings, and tried using the voxl-streamer application as well.

Software encoding works fine for resolution but does not supply the proper latency for my application. OMX fails with the FLIR as well as a visual light camera I am using. Hoping to receive updates on the progress being made on getting the OMX hardware acceleration working properly.
