The Cube won't connect to Mission Planner

[johnmeeel (John Mel Bolaybolay)]

Hi, I’m trying to connect The Cube to the mission planner. The ports are correct but it won’t connect. It says no heartbeat packets received.

I connected my other pixhawk to mission planner and it did work. Am I missing any drivers here?

Hello @johnmeeel

@johnmeeel

The ports are correct but it won’t connect.

Have you selected the MAVLink Comm port and not the SLCAN ones?

Am I missing any drivers here?

Maybe.

One time ago I had a similar trouble, and solved it by updating its bootloader and firmware. Try to do this at Mission Planner firmware update screen.

I fought with this earlier this year. I found it to be a driver issue. To solve it I downloaded and installed QGC. That came with the drivers I needed and then I was able to connect to the Cube with MP.
