Sentinel not arming in OFFBOARD mode
-
I have a Sentinel drone with the latest VOXL SDK 1.0.
I am using MAVROS to control the drone. I can arm it in MANUAL mode, however, I am unable to arm my drone in OFFBOARD mode.
I am publishing a proof of life, by publishing a local goal pose onto the ROS topic
/mavros/setpoint_position/local, and requesting a mode change using the service/mavros/set_mode. The drone successfully switches to the OFFBOARD mode but doesn't arm.How can I solve this?

@SMRazaRizvi in order to arm drone in offboard mode, px4 must be first able to arm in position mode. i would recommend checking if this drone arms in position mode (not manual)
