When I checked the status of the camera server, this is the output:

What should I do to get these services running?

Hello ModalAI Team,

My team was directly to ask this question here on the support forum from conversations with the email based support team. We have most of the components to assemble a Starling 2. We are attempting to order the remaining components.

My team would like to know if there are any specific resource as to the proper procedure for assembling the Starling 2. We want to ensure we do have all of the necessary components to assemble the drone and that is it assembled correctly to avoid having to take off components if not installed in the ideal order.

Unfortunately, ModalAI's support team is unable to help with this according to a support email.

Hello ModalAI Team, I have order all of the components needed to convert the PX4 Dev Kit to a Starling 2. Are there any good instructions to support ease of swapping out/in the necessary parts. Is there anything particular calibrations that will need to be done?

Thanks @tom. Is there any other avenue I can try? I've sent a couple of email with no response.

Thanks @tom. Is there another email address I can reach out to? The mail server has returned the same error twice trying to deliver and email saying that, that email address does not exist or that won't accept a message.

5.1.0 - Unknown address error 550-"5.1.1 The email account that you tried to reach does not exist."

Do I need to fill out a support form first?

Thank you, @tom! I assume this doesn't come with a bracket to attach the camera/sensor to the drone. Is that correct? Is the bracket available for purchase? I don't see it list in the accessories.

Hello ModalAI Team,

Is it possible to buy the components necessary to bring a PX4 Developer Kit drone up to the capabilities of the Starling 2? We would like to have access to the 3D Mapping and navigation features of the Starling 2.
