VOXL SDK Support

The VRX Ground Unit runs the VOXL VRX SDK, a separate image from the drone SDK (current release ubun2.0-multi_SDK_1.8.0.tar.gz, supported since VRX SDK 1.4.5). The VRX and the drone must run the same SDK version: SDK 1.8.0 on the drone (voxl-osd 1.2.0 or newer) needs VRX SDK 1.8.0.

See VRX Ground Unit Developer Guide for more details.

Enclosure/Mount

Gen1.5

  • Rail mount M10001115 is pre-installed on all VRX kits (K0 to K3).
  • The rail mount is fastened from inside the lid with M10000841 and M10001124. To remove or replace it, remove the lid.
  • To attach the VRX to your own equipment, use the M10001115 3D STEP file below to design an adapter that mates with the rail mount.

The cable retainer holds a right-angle USB-C plug in place. Do not use it to mount the VRX.
