Raw YPR output

Description

Dear FP team, we have been trying to use the raw YPR estimate that the sensor should output at all times.
The documentation mentions that its output is at 200HZ and that is published even prior to fusion. Nevertheless, when I connect the sensor (without antennas, table top setup) this topic is not actually published.

A quick inspection in the driver (ROS1) shows that the message conent is parsed from the TF message, which is published at no more than 10Hz.

System Specs

Hardware version: fp-957716 (nav-vr2 1.2b)
Firmware version: fp_release_vr2_2.63.3_227
Driver version: main (commit edaeb8e)
ROS version: ROS1

I have find out that the stream is not enabled when that is not selected in the sensor configuration. A possible enhancement is to add this information to the current readme as at the moment it sound like all topics should be available by default.

@grizzi We're glad that your problem is solved. Also thank you for the suggestion, we'll update the readme and user manual soon.

Would like to open this issue again, was the user manual updated at last? Because I had this exact problem, and I didn't see any information regarding this. Sorry if I'm not correct.
