A year ago I extended the check prior to arming from
to
because otherwise the PX4 preflight checks might fail if the python scripts are too quickly attempting to arm the drone after it acquired GPS.
Unfortunately I added this patch to only a few examples and not all of them. This PR is making up for that, and it also unifies the connection check at the beginning of almost every script. I don't mind the exact phrasing of the messages and whether it's "drone discovered" or "drone connected", but I think it's good to have it similar in all example scripts.
