I am trying to connect a MAVROS instance to my working sim_vehicle.py instance. I know it works because I can issue commands, read data, etc. in QGC.
The issue I’m having is that MAVROS isn’t connecting to the sim_vehicle.py UDP port. I have tried
roslaunch mavros apm.launch fcu_url:=udp://127.0.0.1:14551@
and I get an error when I run
$ roslaunch mavros apm.launch fcu_url:=udp://127.0.0.1:14551@14550

I have also tried various other ports that show up on the screen for the sake of trying.
I launch sim_vehicle using
sim_vehicle.py -v ArduCopter -f gazebo-iris --use-dir copter0 -I 0
Many thanks in advance!
