 Note: ``System()`` takes two named parameters: ``mavsdk_server_address`` and ``port``. When left empty, they default to ``None`` and ``50051``, respectively, and ``mavsdk_server -p 50051`` is run by ``await drone.connect()``. If ``mavsdk_server_address`` is set (e.g. to "localhost"), then ``await drone.connect()`` will not start the embedded ``mavsdk_server`` and will try to connect to a server running at this address. This is useful for platforms where ``mavsdk_server`` does not come embedded, for debugging purposes, and for running ``mavsdk_server`` in a place different than where the MAVSDK-Python script is run.
