Here is the error message:

I have tried several times on different computer, same issue.

Looks like a regression after the board restructure.

The boards are able to provide their own custom upload now. https://github.com/PX4/Firmware/blob/master/boards/intel/aerofc-v1/CMakeLists.txt

I can review this on an aero this weekend.

[dagar]

Looks like the aero upload script needs to know the path to px_uploader.py under Tools/ and not under the boards scripts directory.

@dagar Thanks, let me try the new script. Should I re-clone and re-make it?

I moved the py file to that folder, and now I have this issus:

I have the same issue with the "ValueError: No JSON object could be decoded" Any progress here?

[trexgerratt]

I figured it out. In my case, I was trying to flash the ".elf" file when it should have been the ".px4" file from the make command.

Hope that helps others!

[caiespin]

Hi @trexgerratt How did you managed to select the ".px4" binary instead of the ".elf"?

[julianoes]

I think this has been resolved in latest master, right?

[skamano]

I just cloned master and tried uploading it to my Intel drone and I've been having the exact same issue as @trexgerratt had. So far I haven't found a fix, but I'll try specifying the .px4 file for px_uploader.py

[julianoes]

@skamano can you check #11075?
