@tom SOLVED, thanks Tom, that command line prompt showed me that I needed to voxl-configure-extrinsics. Thank you!

RE: Voxl 2 and Herelink Slow Video stream
@tom We're running v1.0.1 SDK. However, we were actually just able to get the RTSP stream working over Herelink with virtually no latency. Using the SiYiQgroundControl application on the Herelink, the RTSP works completely fine. I believe the issue is in the QGC firmware that ships stock with the Herelink controller. For now you can consider this thread solved. Thanks again!

Camera Cable Failure
We had a camera cable fail on us, flown on a VOXL 2 using an imx412 and OV7251 tracking camera. System was working fine until a minor crash, then video signal was lost. Trying to assess the reason why the cable would fail like this, could this be caused by the cable becoming partially unplugged while the aircraft was still powered? Let me know your thoughts. There definitely was not a screw or any other penetrative object that could have punctured the cable causing a short.

RE: VOXL 2 Mini & VOXL Mini 4-in-1 ESC Configuration for PWM Motor Control
@Alex-Kushleyev Reading through this thread and access to the PWM output without using the VOXL IO board would definitely be of interest for my team, any chance the full sized VOXL ESC would have a similar capability using its AUX outputs?

RE: Hires IMX214 M0024-2 causing ADB to stop working
It ended up being a combination of incorrect ports and pin alignment. The cameras worked great once I got the correct reference frame nailed down.

Hires IMX214 M0024-2 causing ADB to stop working
I was attempting voxl-configure-cams and it failed to detect the IMX214 hires camera. I unplugged the voxl2 and verified the ports that the hires was plugged into. It was on the wrong port, it was on J6L instead of J7U. I reinstalled the hires camera on the correct port. The next time I powered the Voxl2 on, ADB would not work and lsusb shows QUSB_BULK instead of KONA-QRD. I read on a different post that QSUB_BULK is typically an indication of a hardware issue.
Did I fry the IMX214 M0024-2 by putting it on the wrong port? -
RE: Poor performance with vertical oriented tracking camera
@Alex-Kushleyev Alex, looks like the issue was due to the mini being mounted upside down, and me failing to set that correctly in the extrinsic configuration file. I set the body - imu_apps to expect an 180 degree roll configuration and that solved my issue. The core of which ended up being that the voxl-vision-hub service was reading the system as upside down and therefore resetting the service every few seconds, causing the issue.
Is this the correct way to report the flight controller being upside down to the vision service? I've already confirmed the tracking sensor to IMU relation is correct. My edit seems to work, but I want to make sure it is correct.

RE: Poor performance with vertical oriented tracking camera
@Alex-Kushleyev This is very helpful. My major issue however is a lack of quality for which I am struggling to understand,
This is using the Voxl 2 Mini, SDK 1.1.3 with the OV7251 sensor. Other platforms I've built with this sensor have no issues maintaining over 50% quality in this environment (albeit on the full VOXL 2, this is my first time using the mini). It also seems to have issues with the calibration, I've already replaced the tracking sensor with no change. The quality of the picture is equivalent to what I'd expect as well. Tomorrow I am going to try and upgrade to SDK 1.2 to see if there is a difference.

Poor performance with vertical oriented tracking camera
For a project I'm working on, we need to operate the tracking camera facing directly up or 45 degrees vertical (from forward facing). In either orientation, the tracking camera is able to pick up significant points but cannot seem to get a quality higher then 1-5% causing poor VIO performance. I've set the extrinsic file, when the camera is pointed 45 degrees up from forward facing, to be RPY( 0, 270, 90). Is this correct?

RE: voxl-px4 service pipeline uORB failure
@Eric-Katzfey That seems to have solved the issue, now were able to establish a connection to QGC. Any idea why that would cause an issue?

RE: M0014 vs M0149 tracking cameras for indoor VIO
@Moderator Great, I noticed in SDK 1.2 there is now support for dual tracking cameras in the camera server, can both feeds be fed into the QVIO service to allow for the use of both cameras in VIO?
