ERROR:autopilot:ARMING MOTORS

[atomattias]

Help me out, I am new to Dronekit-python, My goal is to use dronekit python on sitl.
My system is ubuntu 18.04
I am running $dronekit-sitl copter in one terminal and tried to connect with it from another.
I test it with the sample script.
$python simple_goto.py
But it looks like it is not changing mode and is failed as it tried to arm the motor.

Did you solve this problem? I am taking this error too.

Same issue for me, for this script specifically and my own, which all run successfully on an older install.

Same error... when trying to takeoff the SITL, is not gaining altitude due to the same problem. It was working before the last update.

For me this was caused by the vehicle state not changing to guided mode. I reinstalled an older version of mavlink as per this comment #1041 (comment). This solved the problem for me

This problem has persisted but when I downgrade, it produces a haystack of a mess
