HI support,
I have a starling 2 drone with ros2 installed. I ran a ros2 script giving the drone a position command of (0,0,-1.5), i want to believe its NED convention, and i plotted the the commanded Z position vs the actual Z position, I realized my drone (i was using HITL) doesnt climb to the set altitude, it stops at around 0.8m and starts doing a figure eight motion. I believe if i change the offboard_mode from figure eight to off/none, it shouldnt do that anymore(using sudo nano /etc/modalai/voxl-vision-hub.conf). But regarding the drone not climbing to the commanded position, i tried ros2 topic echo/fmu/out/vehicle_local_position, i got;
xy_valid : true
z_valid : true
heading_good_for_control : false

This made me wonder if the issue was because heading_good_for_control is false. Kindly advise.

Best Regards
Taiwo

Hi support,

I Have a starling 2 drone with ROS2 FOXY installed on it, when i run ros2 ropic list, i see the visual odometry as an available topic, but ros2 topic echo /fmu/in/vehicle_visual_odometry
isnt publishing anything, its just stucked. This on the other hand, ros2 topic echo /ov/odom
is working, so I know that my QVIO is running properly.

What can I do.

THanks,
Taiwo

@teddy-zaremba when i did that, it did that, it booted (the esc flashed and went off). I tried connecting the peripherals individually, the LED came up right after I connected this particular 4 pins

@tom @teddy-zaremba can you assist please? This is pretty urgent, I need to get this fixed. Also, the landing gears got broken, and I can't seem to be able to order new parts from the official website, is there a way I can go about it?
Looking forward to your response.
Thanks

Hi Support,
I have a starling 2 drone, it had a hard landing and I believe it is in crash state (there is a green LED that is on), due to this, i can't adb shell into it, it's not listed as adb devices, it doesn't even go into fastboot mode. Kindly assist!

I have attached an image of the drone showing the LED.

Thanks,
Taiwo

Hi support,
I have a starling 2 drone that got damaged, due to this damage (the bracket housing the gps), the drone doesn't arm anymore. How can I fix this? Is it possible to fix it myself? or do i have to send it over?

Thanks,
Taiwo

@tom I have been able to clone it using https://gitlab.com/voxl-public/voxl-sdk/utilities/voxl-mpa-to-ros2.git , but I have not been able to install ros2 on my voxl2.

So, after cloning the repository, i ran the install deb script using ./install_build_deps.sh qrb5165 sdk-1.5
THen i ran the build script using ./install_build_deps.sh qrb5165 sdk-1.0, but it keeps failing when building px4_msgs.

Am I doing this wrongly? (By the way, i used chatgpt).

@Alex-Kushleyev thank you for your response. i have been able to clone it, but I have still not been able to install ros2 on my voxl2.

@teddy-zaremba i tried cloning voxl-mpa-to-ros repository using git clone https://gitlab.com/voxl-public/voxl-sdk/services/voxl-mpa-to-ros2.git, and i am prompted to input a username. I thought it should be public access.

Kindly help..
