    except asyncio.CancelledError:
        return

if __name__ == " __main__":
    # Run the asyncio loop
    asyncio.run(run())

```

when i run i am getting this output

```auto
This installation does not provide an embedded 'mavsdk_server' binary.
If you installed using pip, this means that 'mavsdk_server' is not distributed
for your platform yet (e.g. arm).

You will need to get and run the 'mavsdk_server' binary manually:

  1. Download 'mavsdk_server' from: https://github.com/mavlink/mavsdk/releases
     or build it from source.

  2. Run it, e.g. on port 50051:
     './mavsdk_server -p 50051'

  3. Set the 'mavsdk_server_address' and port when creating the System:
     'drone = System(mavsdk_server_address='localhost', port=50051)'

```

please help me

Are you trying to connect to a real drone ? Can you provide a screenshot for the setup?
