Hello everyone, I’m trying to use fake_gps in SITL mode in gazebo. I changed the plugin so that it constantly sends a constant lat/lon for testing purposes to see if I can get the quadrotor up and flying in simulating.
The fake_gps pluging successfully seems to be sending this lat/lon, however, upon starting a sample test program, I get these errors and it disarms automatically

Whats wrong here? I made sure to specify at least 15 for satellites_visible instead of the default value of 5, so I’m clueless as what else is needed to get rid of this error!
So any help in this regard is greatly appreciated
