      Hi @Alex-Kushleyev , @QSL 170-250mm is quite long. I'm not optimistic 250mm can even work, 170 would be risky.
      We can offer our design services, but typically what that results in is a MOQ of a specific new item, such as 300-500pcs depending on the complexity (at normal MRSP which for flexes runs ~$50-80 each) and lead times would be ~14-18 weeks.
      What we would need is a .dxf outline of your intended design and we can review that for feasibility and interest. If it really is 250mm, I'd prefer to no-bid it. 200mm might be the edge here (we do not have sophisticated Sigrity tools to confirm, so going on experience here).
      M0170 is not ideally suited for back-to-back (the connectors are a bit offset from each other so the net result would be weird) but it may prove if 140mm can work + ~10 mm for the connector transition losses.
      In situations like this, I encourage the ME/Industrial Design Team to reconsider placement of sensors and main electronics relative to each other. There are just some constraints the electronics cannot meet easily. Sometimes just simply re-prioritizing the system constraints helps solve the spatial/distance problems. To extend past ~180+mm, I would encourage you use an external design firm that knows how to do mipi repeaters and high speed design. We've had one customer successfully do that, but it takes some skill and we could do it ourselves, but we just do not have the design cycles to support it this calendar year.
      Hope this helps and let us know what your thoughts are, and if pursuing us for a custom design is an option, we can reach out over email.

      The latest firmware for M0065 can be found on gitlab here

      or directly on voxl2 in /usr/share/modalai/voxl2-io-tools/firmware/

      Once updated, the firmware will be detected as version 2. The previous version 1 is no longer supported due to several bugs.

      @Moderator
      Which configuration allows 2D ground mapping, does it have a downward facing camera?
      Is there a whole kit of ground control station (controller) available (meaning ready to fly/control, including receiver, display, joysticks...)?
      Resolution in real time and latency of the video streaming?

      @ramp Yes you could still do HITL with a starling 2 max, would just require unplugging the ESC from the VOXL 2 and using that connector

      @Moderator If you can provide the serial number of your VOXL CAM (form MXX00000XXX) we can check to see if we have the camera calibration data backed up in our production database and provide it if so.

      @Moderator
      From a software viewpoint, yes, they should be identical due to the USB Host port connectivity.

      However, the reason why Doodle is not listed as one of our connectivity options on VOXL 2 Mini is due to power limitations.
      The VBUS of the USB Port J3 can only provide 900mA, which is less than 1/2 of what a Doodle radio asks for (most Doodle radios need 5V @ 2A).
      To try to use a Doodle on VOXL 2 Mini will require you to connect an external power supply as per Doodle's requirements and then use our USB connector for GND, D+, and D- only.
      Be sure somewhere in the system, specifically at the Doodle connectors, to connect the GNDs of the power supply and our USB GND to create a common DC GND reference, but to not introduce noise from the power supply into the USB signals.
      We do not normally do this, so we are not aware of any other caveats, but we can't guarantee 100% success either.
      Give it a try!
      Let us know if you need further guidance.
      Thanks

      @Moderator No, it does not. You need to rely on QGC or other reporting tools.
