Hi everyone, Just been getting our BR2 out getting it ready for upcoming project. Last time we unboxed it was to upgrade to the Navigator/RasPi4. I’ve tried looking for an update and I’m currently getting this. [IMG_2526] Does this just mean it’s up to date?? Also My next question was I’m be…

Hi @Davie260563 - Unfortunately your system has rolled back to factory. This is a known bug in BlueOS 1.1.1 and earlier. Please enable pirate mode , and update to v1.2 beta 7, and after updating, apply bootstrap update with the yellow button that will appear next to the BlueOS version. Alternative…

Hi Tony Thank you for this I will get on this first thing. Are the EKF3 errors related to this? Also could you give me a run down how we would save the parameters, not sure which option is easier. Once updated what changes are we likely to see if any. Thanks Davie

Hi @Davie260563 - The EKF3 errors may be related to this, or something you’ve configured with the vehicle parameters - are you using a DVL or other positioning system? Saving your parameters is easy - within BlueOS go to the Autopilot Parameters menu and choose save. You can use the load button af…

I have been mapping the Delta HCU within QGC but that was it. We don’t have any DVL or position equipment just our ping 360 fitted.

Hi @Davie260563 - No updates on our solution / replacement for ths low-light USB camera yet. You could try unplugging the camera connector at the camera, slightly bending the pin, and plugging it back in. This may result in better contact as the camera moves? The recent update to Cockpit (beta7) …

I have not used the browser based GCS what is this? I will try unplugging and look at pins etc but was working fine prior to update so I thought I’d just ask as that’s only thing that has changed.

Hi @Davie260563 - Cockpit is an alternative to QGroundControl, intended to completely replace it… eventually! The update should not affect the video when tilting, it sounds like a hardware/connection issue.

Hi Tony, I’ve extended the wires one the usb low light cam and done a continuity check which seem good but not getting camera feed at all. Is there anything else I can try? I don’t have spare unfortunately. Davie

Been playing with this and reverted to to standard length and it works. Well sort of it’s 20/30mm too short now. So will try adding another section to make it reach. Do you know the working length of the cable for usb camera? I originally added 60mm section and it didn’t work.
