@Nirge You should use voxl-wifi for wlan0.

It all depends on your setup. With our flight deck setup we can run all 4 cores at 100% with just the fan. A fan is much more effective than a heat sink. Still might require a little experimentation though

@Vinny no worries, I ended up just going to industrial hardware in SD and trying out a bunch of machine screws until I got one that fit nicely, cant recall the exact size. Here are the dimensions for mounting the M0026 in a part I made. Figured I would post it if it helps someone else out since I personally couldn't find a STEP file for this part. Dimensions are in mm, the camera is ~24.1mm from base to the tip of the lens from my caliper measurements.

Also, you could do a quick test on DSP side, just write more data to UART port than the baud rate can handle and see what the write() function returns and how much time it takes. Usually the write() function is non-blocking, as it will hand off data to underlying layers to take care of UART writing. But I suspect that if the SDSP UART system runs out of buffers to put your data in, it will probably block until buffer space for writing frees up instead of dropping data. I have not confirmed this, but that's my expectation.

Thanks for this detailed response! This would be good information to put in the technical documentation when searching in google for "modalai flight core connections for magnetometer" there wasn't much information on how to setup a magnetometer with the flight core.

I was able to setup the the RM3100 by using J13.[1,2] for 3.3 VCC and GND and the J10.[4,5] for the I2C protocol. This allowed me to set

in PX4 and successfully calibrate the compass
