I'm using the VOXL 2 flight deck, Spektrum receiver, and Spektrum DXs transmitter. They are bound and I'm getting MAVLink messages in QGC, but no RC channels. PX4 is not publishing RC messages. When I attempt to calibrate RC in QGC, I get the error message "Detected 0 radio channels. To operate PX4, you need at least 5 channels."
voxl2:/$ px4-listener input_rc
never published
PX4 is failing to initialize uart 8. Starting voxl-px4 produces the following:
