Thanks for the answer, yes I already looked into the code. I was just wondering why the servers timestamp differs from the system timestamp. But then I will change the node accordingly.

Which version of PX4 are you running on the Pixhawk and do you have a magnetometer connected? EKF2 is generally unhappy about about starting without a magnetometer in PX4 1.11 so we patched the PX4 firmware for Flight Core to get around this. In PX4 1.12 and newer the following PX4 parameter can be set to allow EKF2 to allow position mode without a GPS/Mag

## disable mag SYS_HAS_MAG 0 EKF2_MAG_TYPE 5

Glad to hear it's working!

Yes, We're days away from finishing a rework of our docs that includes all the information about the new architecture, should be seeing it real soon.

Hi @rapit were you able to connect with the docker container at the end?

Thank you, it works now. I did not think about using my local mavros as connection link between voxl and QGroundControl.

I changed the port. The original issue was a binary installed mavros which crashed when using a gcs_url. So I thought it was a configuration problem but building mavros from source and running with your proposed configuration worked. Thank you again!

Nevermind, apparently I looked in the wrong places:

https://dev.px4.io/master/en/ros/external_position_estimation.html has the answer: EKF2_HGT_MODE must be set to vision to use the voxl odometry instead of the barometer. Closing this.

Glad you got it working, let me know if you have any more questions. Apriltag relocalization is still a fairly new feature with only me and a few other customers really using it extensively so any feedback is appreciated. Thank you!

That node works like a charm, thank you so much!
