@tom Unfortunately it will be a few days before i can get that to you, but what i can do is list off the items i received.

I received one sentinel drone with 5g modem and a set of propellers
one pelican case
4 batteries
2 wall power adapters
one alpha wireles dongle
one voxl power module as pictured

Note: the power module was taped to the alpha dongle (which was in the alpha box).

from looking through the documentation the usb break out for the wifi on the drone with a 5G modem is the 4 pin JST GH for usb2.0 on the modem carrier board itself. it it looks like all i was missing was the cable that plugs into that board and the wifi dongle. i saw a shipping notification so it appears something is on its way. Thank you

@tom said in Sentinel Drone - Voxel 2 Arived from factory Bricked:

found your order, it looks as though you purchased the WiFi add-on for sentinel, meaning the WiFi dongle would be installed on the Sen

I was sent the alpha USB dongle and an extra Voxl Power module taped together. What is supposed to be installed on the drone for the wifi ad-on? from what i can tell from browsing the documentation it is the alpha dongle. but that was shipped still in its box in the case with the drone.

@tom Ok i figured it out it was an additional problem that just found a solution for my machine. the android tools were installed in a wired state with how we have our mirror and proxys configured. that just got fixed and had to reinstall the android tools and is now behaving.

thank you.

my second question about the usb cable to connect the wifi dongle was that supposed to come with the wifi kit?

@tom
for that USB device i see the following
Bus 002 Device 010: ID 05c6:901d Qualcomm, Inc. KONA-QRD _SN:817893AD

After reading the quick star guides and getting my lunix machine set up with the android tools I powered up the drone for the first time and device is not available for adb shell or abd devices. I am using a USB A to C cable as suggested and I tried both ubuntu 22.04 and 18.04 with the same results. I can see the qualcomm device under lsusb.

Also it appears my order was missing a cable. I got the sentinel drone with the 5g modem and the wifi adon but in the wifi kit there was no cable to plug the dongle to the drone, instead I was sent another voxl power module.
