@Eric-Katzfey said in Set static IP on ModalAI M500:

@vmassague You can try this: https://www.howtogeek.com/118337/stupid-geek-tricks-change-your-ip-address-from-the-command-line-in-linux/

Is there a way to set the static IP permanently?

I saw that in the WiFi guide you recommend reserving the IP in the WiFi router, unfortunately that's not an option for me.

Thank you James!
Finally I got the voxl-tag-detector up and running changing the loc_type in the /etc/modalai/tag_locations.conf file from "unknown" to "fixed".

Unfortunately, we have never tried anything but IPv4, and don't really have much of any experience using IPv6 in general.

It is likely there were not stable visual features on takeoff. A field of grass is not that great for visual feature tracking. You could try putting something in front of the drone on the ground for it to look at and see if that helps

Yes, chr is an issue most likely. Take a look at how uint8 from a binary representation is sent here : https://gitlab.com/voxl-public/voxl-sdk/core-libs/libapq8096-io/-/blob/master/lib/python/voxl_i2c_apm_v1.py#L48 you can do something similar (also example for hex). The data type needs to be some sort of an int.

#values of configuration registers CTRLA (address 0x00) and CTRLB (address 0x01) CTRLA = np.uint8(int('0b01011000',2)) #offset calib every 128 conv, volt=Sense+; so sampling takes about 35ms (for both voltage and current together) CTRLB = np.uint8(int('0b00000100',2)) #addresses of registers for reading data REG_VRAW = int('0x1E',16) REG_IRAW = int('0x14',16) #write configuration to both LTC2946 devices p.slave_config(ID0) p.write(0,8,CTRLA) p.write(1,8,CTRLB) ... p.slave_config(ID0) vraw_batt = p.read(REG_VRAW,8,2) iraw_batt = p.read(REG_IRAW,8,2)

Hi @vmassague ,

We currently can add the R-XSR or X8R, if you purchase just let us know (you can even post here) what flavor you would want installed.

Our Shopify page needs some work to allow product customization... until then we might need to have some back and forth to get the customizations you want.

Thanks!
Travis

@vmassague Hi, I am pretty much doing the same thing and I faced a similar issue with you.
have you solved this issue?

This is how mavros behaves going from PX4 coordinate frame to ROS coordinate frame when viewed in RViz. We just supply examples of how to use mavros on our platform with open code for people to change and use as they see fit. If you have suggestions on how this code might be improved, we would happily accept a merge request.
