can't connect m500 drone to qgroundcontrol
-
I have seen multiple posts on this forum with the same issue and tried multiple solutions but none of them seem to work

some of the things I have tried.
-
changing sdk versions (tldr: upgraded from 0.9.4 -> 0.9.5, it wasn't working.)
voxl upgrade guide
"connected to voxl-mavlink-server but no messages from PX4" -
checked and "external_fc" is false
"Connected to voxl-mavlink-server but no messages from PX4" again
-
tried monitoring if mavlink is sending messages. and nothing works.

something that is potentially interesting. this down here wasn't the case before.

below is the output tovoxl-qvio-server

-
followed this guide.
Connect m500 to PX4 -
checked for loose connections. unplugged and plugged everything back in
loose connection -
I want to try this solution but I can't get a wired connection to qgroundcontrol. any help with that would be appreciated

for anyone who has the voxl-qvio issue where it says state FAIL, just try centering (using your fingers and wiggling) the voxl board and it will work. I think it just needs to be centered.
