Some users have reported that recently purchased Pixhawk Cube Orange+ boards exhibit compatibility issues with PX4 v1.14.x (as bundled in MATLAB R2024a–R2025b). While older Cube Orange+ units work correctly, newer boards show the following problems under PX4 v1.14.0 / v1.14.3:
PX4 boots with the error tune.
RC input is missing:
QGroundControl’s Radio setup shows no channels.
MAVLink Inspector shows no RC_CHANNELS / RC_CHANNELS_RAW messages.
SBUS RCIN is not recognized; enabling ELRS/CRSF only gives glitchy signals.
LiDAR (e.g., TFMini) stops publishing; no DISTANCE_SENSOR messages.
PWM_MAIN channels 1–8 appear disabled, and PWM_MAIN_TIM* parameters are missing.
Flashing PX4 v1.15+ resolves these issues, suggesting that newer Cube Orange+ hardware requires changes not present in PX4 v1.14.x.
Questions:
Is this a known issue with newer Cube Orange+ boards and PX4 v1.14.x?
Is there a roadmap to support PX4 v1.15+ in MATLAB PX4 Toolbox?
Is there any workaround to make these boards work with PX4 v1.14.x in MATLAB?Some users have reported that recently purchased Pixhawk Cube Orange+ boards exhibit compatibility issues with PX4 v1.14.x (as bundled in MATLAB R2024a–R2025b).
