Solved - I’ve since been told this Cube actually has changes to the internal architecture and is not supported by PX4 yet. I’ve been working with the Orange Cube+ and successfully making FW for it. Someone handed me an Orange Cube+ IB and it seems like TELEM1 and TELEM2 don’t work. I.e. everythin…

What’s IB? As far as I’m aware CubeOrange+ should work, and it has support for the different variants, as of PX4 v1.15: 1.15/boards/cubepilot/cubeorangeplus/init/rc.board_sensors release # Variants # 1. Isolated {ICM42688p, ICM20948(with mag)}, body-f…

The Cube Orange+ (IB) features harder foam and removes the counterweight. Aha. No different image required.

Well, no. The change notes are not accurate. PX4 does need an update to support this. Confirmed this with people working directly with Cubepilot. Ardupilot does support the IB.

Ok, let me sync with the CubePilot team then and check. I’m working with the guys and responsible for PX4 support for CubePilot. I’ll let you know when I know more.

I can confirm what I was trying to say earlier: No, IB is just different foam no difference in electronics or software So, PX4 should support CubeOrange+ (IB) just fine.

I really think this is not true. I have an Orange Cube+ on a mini carrier board - serial port works. I put an Orange Cube IB onto the same board, use a scope to watch the signals going in, serial port does not work. Try another Cube IB, same thing. Put the Cube+ back on the carrier board, serial…

Please share all parameters for the Cube that works and one that does not. I can then compare if it’s a configuration issue. If that doesn’t work, we’ll have to start up both, connect via USB and QGC and in the MAVLink console get the output of dmesg. If there is something failing at startup, that …

Takeaway: switch to PX4 bootloader, use newer version of PX4, or make sure to include the fix mentioned above in the build.

I haven’t tested but suspect this is the same thing.
