Recently, whenever we try to connect the AVR Drone to QGroundControl it doesn’t connect. The computer is connected to the drone’s wifi and everything else besides QGC is working correct. Also, we recently changed our Pixhawk for a new one, so that could be the issue. The drone keeps saying “mavp2p\_1 2024/10/19 4891 errors in the last 5 seconds” We also get this error in QGC:
