Actually, can y'all provide the easiest path forward that supports just the tracking camera + hi-res front facing camera + FLIR Hadron?

That setup would be ideal

@Vinny

Really appreciate the in-depth response and thoughtfulness, your intuition was correct 👏

I tried to reproduce the setup from the windows PC

Wall power supply to Starling 2 (Same mains outlet) 12VAC to 5VDC to doodle labs radio Twisted D-/+ cables

Upon USB connection, I'm able to see the following on dmesg -w:

[ 1156.696173] usb 1-1: new high-speed USB device number 6 using xhci-hcd [ 1156.832876] usb 1-1: New USB device found, idVendor=0424, idProduct=9e00, bcdDevice= 3.00 [ 1156.832886] usb 1-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=0, Product=0, SerialNumber=0 [ 1156.848011] smsc95xx v1.0.6 [ 1156.912009] smsc95xx 1-1:1.0 eth0: register 'smsc95xx' at usb-xhci-hcd.0.auto-1, smsc95xx USB 2.0 Ethernet, 00:30:1a:3a:eb:c8 [ 1156.981572] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready [ 1156.989474] QTI:Netlink Query to Kernel Success [ 1158.456775] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): eth0: link becomes ready [ 1158.464411] QTI:LINK_UP message posted [ 1158.465167] QTI:Processing LINK_UP [ 1158.465606] smsc95xx 1-1:1.0 eth0: link up, 100Mbps, full-duplex, lpa 0x4DE1 [ 1158.472660] QTI:Enable mobileap [ 1158.479629] QCMAP:Enable mobileap [ 1158.598399] QCMAP:Enable mobileap done [ 1158.602320] QTI:Setup TETHERED link [ 1158.676632] QTI:LINK_UP Processed

and am able to stream data via voxl portal for a few seconds. Afterwards, the USB connection goes into a repeated disconnect/reconnect cycle.

Moving forward for next testing (and obviously final configuration), I'll power both from the same source (w/ a BEC), shorten the cables, and be sure to twist the data lines (similar to mcbl-0085)

@Eric-Katzfey

Okay, I'll keep this in mind as I develop toward offboard control. If I find any more information, I'll follow up here.

Just a side note: I don't see this behavior in real-world flight during manual or position, seems to be isolated to HITL at this point in time.

Thanks!
