Please I need help can't get started with MAVSDK-Python, ImportError: cannot import name 'System' from 'mavsdk'

[ghost]

Please, I really don't know how to use this repo,
After installing the mavsdk using the command

pip3 install mavsdk

do I need to clone the repo?.
If I try running the example, I get

from mavsdk import System ImportError: cannot import name 'System' from 'mavsdk''

I can't seem to follow up with the read.me. a little explanation on how to get started would be appreciated. Thanks

That's an issue indeed, I will release a new version tomorrow, so that you can update using pip and the examples will work. Sorry about that 😕!

This was already reported over the week-end in #112, so I'll close this issue. Feel free to continue the discussion there or open a new issue if necessary!

I did some findings and discovered that System.py module is not available in the downloaded mavsdk package and there was no System class in the init.py module either.

Also need help. ImportError: cannot import name 'start_mavlink' when I am in apython and command >>> import start_mavlink

Do I have to generate a MAVSDK_server? I followed 45 minute video where at 20:42 I begin to get errors.
