Pull request overview
Updates the Radio backend’s Drone initialization to wait specifically for a flight-controller (autopilot) heartbeat before continuing setup, improving connection correctness when multiple MAVLink components are present.
Changes:
- Replace
wait_heartbeat(timeout=5)with a deadline-basedrecv_match(type="HEARTBEAT")loop that ignores non-autopilot heartbeats. - Improve timeout logging /
connectionErrormessaging to include the configured timeout duration. - Derive
target_system/target_componentfrom the accepted heartbeat’s source IDs.
💡 Add Copilot custom instructions for smarter, more guided reviews. Learn how to get started.
