Hi @patrickelectric,
One quickly question: the topic setpoint_velocity/cmd_vel it’s working for you? There are some pre-requesites to send a cmd_vel?
I did before:
rosrun mavros mavsys mode -c GUIDED
But the result is a timeout. I tested with your BlueROV2 node mavros and not working with real robot.
EDIT: If i run with SITL mode works! But not with a real robot/pixhawk → mavproxy → ROS PC
