@TomP GPS on pins 2 and 3 is mapped to serial port 3 in ArduPilot. The RC port on pins 10 and 11 is mapped to 4. https://github.com/ArduPilot/ardupilot/blob/d977f318c68faf69b8afa9b5c1afe73932a1d946/libraries/AP_HAL_QURT/HAL_QURT_Class.cpp#L50

HI @TomP
Please remove all products off of the ESD static bags.
This bags are only used for unpowered storage/shipping when outside of a controlled ESD Work Area.
This site has a few good books you can try to pick up so your team is well prepared for ESD handling: https://www.techni-tool.com/category/Static-Protection/ESD-Training-And-Awareness-Materials

Hi @TomP
Absolutely No.
Do Not use our Micro Coax cables or adapter boards with ANY sensor other than provided by ModalAI. We spent months designing this new ecosystem of connectors, pinouts, and adapter boards with a ton of thought and care. Part of that is complete incompatibility with other vendors' products.

Thanks!

@Alex-Kushleyev, no need for super low-latency FPV, just using a higher megapixel sensor to stabilize down to what we can consistently stream down the radio link. Some form of digital gimbal would be great too, where we can steer the field of view to a specific region

@TomP , if you look at C19 configuration (https://docs.modalai.com/voxl2-camera-configs/#c-17-tof-tracking-stereo0v9782-and-hiresimx412) , the IMX412 camera is connected to the other camera port on the dual camera flex. You have it connected to the connector that goes straight out (7JU), C19 shows IMX412 connected to the port going off to the side (7JL).

If you want to keep IMX412 connected as shown in your picture, please copy the following file, which will tell the camera pipeline to try to detect the IMX412 camera on 7JU:

cp /usr/share/modalai/chi-cdk/imx412/com.qti.sensormodule.imx412_3.bin /usr/lib/camera/

Please double check this 🙂

@tom That's really excellent news that you are working on the AT Command issue. I'm really looking forward to the update.

The thermal pad seems to be self-adhesive. When you loosen the screw it is held in place by the thermal pad.
I suspect that the thermal pad will need to be replaced if you force it off. Do you have a type designation for the thermal pad? Then I can buy a replacement somewhere.

Quectel modems are updated by plugging them into a USB adapter, connecting it to a Windows PC and installing the firmware update using proprietary Quectel software. With Sierra it probably works in a similar way.

@TomP Yes, should be in by end of the year.

@Eric-Katzfey All right. We look forward to the update.
