Description

I'm having issues with sending transmissions to the servos of the rover I'm working with. Using a Linux environment on a Jetson TX2 to communicate with a Pixhawk2 (Cube) through usb-microusb cable. Here's relevant photos:

MAIN OUT servo output 1 is supposed to be or the throttle, and 3 is for the ESC attached to motors in the back.
Servo configuration has been done through Mission Planner on Windows. Scripts were able to run successfully on there. 1500 pwm was set as neutral for both servos.

Research direction

The report names no MAVProxy file, test, or command entry point; start by reproducing the set-servo failure with the Linux, Jetson TX2, and Pixhawk2 setup described. Done requires identifying why the servo transmission fails and documenting a verified correction, but the issue does not define a test or expected output.
