Hello,
I’m trying to get my motors spinning using my transmitter (FlySky i6X). I’ve carefully followed the steps of the RC configuration guide but I keep seing this message from the rosflight_io node:

I have assigned a switch for arm/disarm by changing the default value of the ARM_CHANNEL parameter but still got the ‘ARM switch not mapped’ message. However, when I echo /rc_raw it displays the signals of the sticks and switches. Is there any specific parameter I might have forgotten to set? I’m quite stuck at this point. Sorry if I’m posting senseless questions, I’m new with ROS and ROSflight and there are some things I don’t have quite clear yet.
