Trouble in running the mavros_test Project (simple-example)

Captain 7th

I have trouble running the mavros_test Project (simple-example) (https://docs.modalai.com/mavros/#mavros_test-project-simple-example).

I followed all the instructions carefully, and when I ran:

cd /home/mavros_test
./run_mavros_test.sh
I got this on the terminal:

voxl2:/home/mavros_test(simple-example)$ ./run_mavros_test.sh

Note 2: I could manually arm/disarm the Sentinel drone with QGC and RC. The motors are working properly. But this ros example is not working here! Can anyone help me?

Note 3: I also tried to change the mode channel to 5 and 6, but still not working!
This is a photo for QGC. As you can see, I could manually arm the drone and have a connection to the drone.

Captain 7th

@Captain-7th . The problem is here: When I switch between manual and offboard, the drone does not arm/disarm as expected in the video tutorial and instructions!

brahim

@Captain-7th Can you do a rostopic echo of

/mavros/state

You should be able to see info printed if the autopilot is connected or disconnected.

@brahim

Thank you for your reply. Here is the info from ros topic:

When I run the simple-example, and then I switch between the "offboard" and "manual", the drone is not able to get armed! Here is the message on the terminal:

The only way that I can arm the drone is when I am using RC (I put it on "manual" mode, and then use the QGC bar to arb the drone! Check the attached photo! Screenshot from 2024-09-17 19-44-43.jpg

brahim

@Captain-7th Are you able to arm and fly in position mode? According to the mavros state you are connected and the printout shows that the arming command is sent to the vehicle while in offboard, but it is possible there is a preflight check that is failing?

@brahim

Yes, while I am in manual mode, I can arm and disarm the drone with using ROS command using mavros services. But, when I switch back to offboard mode, I get a message that arming/disarming failed!

The process for arming/disarming is like this:

With the transmitter, I change the mode to the manual.
launch the roscore
launch px4 and mavros: roslaunch mavros px4.launch fcu_url:=udp://127.0.0.1:14551@127.0.0.1:14551
run this script :

#!/usr/bin/env python

    # Service proxies for arming and setting the mode
    rospy.wait_for_service('/mavros/cmd/arming')
    rospy.wait_for_service('/mavros/set_mode')

    try:

The drone start arming and motors are working, but the drone does not goes up! I am installed the propellers properly and have been already double checked!

Manual mode is not really representative of the ability to switch into offboard mode and send setpoints. You will need to be able to arm in position or hold mode first. If you do not have an rc controller then try to arm in hold mode. If you are not able to arm in either mode, then there is a preflight check fail somewhere that needs to be addressed first.
