Followed the instructions in the docs: Simulation on Hardware — Dev documentation (ardupilot.org)
Upload and building of the firmware was successful.
The trouble started when the drone was unable to initialize its roll properly. The drone always starts at -180 which causes the drone to be upside down, thus unable to test the simulation of hardware. It will be a great help if anyone can offer insights into this matter
Thank you!
Flight controller: Kakute H7 mini nand
