MAVROS not connecting to FCU on m500

Prasad Antervedi · 28 Sept 2021, 18:15

Hi again!
I am trying to run mavros on VOXL on the m500 and I have been following the tutorial given here. The output when I run do ./run_mavros.sh is as shown here
... logging to /root/.ros/log/0c573912-1dda-11b2-b775-ec5c68cd236d/roslaunch-apq8096-2040.log

But when I do rostopic echo /mavros/state I get the following output

For your reference here are my voxl-vision-px4.conf file
And here is my run_mavros.sh file

As shown above, MAVROS is not connecting to FCU and as a result I am not getting anything on the /mavros/local_position/pose rostopic. Just FYI I am getting pose information in my QGC (in MAVLink Inspector) and it seemed to be accurate (moved approximately 1m forward and it was reflected in the QGC)

Please let me know if you need any more information. Any insight into solving this would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
