I wanted to bring to your attention an issue we have encountered with the USB port on the Voxl2 Microhard add-on board. According to the official documents, the USB port is supposed to provide a voltage of 5V DC. However, our measurements have revealed that the voltage drops to 4.8V immediately after booting and further decreases to 4.5V while running our code.

This voltage drop is problematic for us as we require the USB ports to consistently provide a minimum voltage of 5V for our application. We have been exploring potential solutions to address this issue, and I wanted to reach out to the forum for any suggestions or insights you may have.

If anyone has encountered a similar problem or has any ideas on how to ensure a stable 5V voltage output from the USB port on the Voxl2 Microhard add-on board, please share your thoughts. We would greatly appreciate any guidance or experiences you can provide.

Thank you in advance for your assistance!

I'm encountering a peculiar issue while working with MPA-to-ROS2. Specifically, I'm only able to subscribe from my laptop under certain circumstances.

Here's the scenario: after running the mpa_to_ros2 on VOXL, attempting to do ros2 topics echo from the laptop yields no output whatsoever. However, if I keep ros2 topic echo active and toggle mpa_to_ros2 off and on again, messages are then properly outputted.

Additionally, when running mpa_to_ros2 on VOXL and executing ros2 topic list from the laptop, sometimes topics appear as expected, while other times they do not. I'm unsure what conditions need to be met for the topic list to display correctly.

I conducted these tests using WiFi, with both the laptop and VOXL connected to the same network.

If anyone has encountered similar issues or has insights into potential solutions, I'd greatly appreciate your input.
