      Armed is not what you think it means. Its referring to the motors. Typically when you go to take off you have to arm the drone before you can use the motors. You press a button on your radio and then can lift off.

      Target locked is 100% what it means though.

          Take it up with quadcopter hobbyists. It’s been called “arming” since I started flying in 2019, and surely well before that.
