ArduCopter2 Trouble connecting

I have connected and uploaded the new code via mission planner. I have gone through the setup with the CLI and MP. When I slide the switch forward to the fly position and try to connect to the mission plannner it never connects even with gps lock? I've even tried to connect via Xbee's set at 56700, but nothing. All the lights are good "A" is solid green. I do NOT have it conneccted to the Rx or ESC does that matter? I'm trying to make sure everything is working first.

I get this error every time I try to build the code. The definition of the function get_log_boundaries is in the wrong place. You need to move the function get_log_boundaries up in the file to before the first place it is called.  I'm not sure how anyone else is getting the 'out of box' code to compile.  I've never been able to compile AC2 without modifying this file.

Not right now.  :(  I'm at work and don't have access to my Arducopter build environment.  I will when I get home (~ 8 hours from now).

Im getting the same mavlink bad packet error. 

It works fine for updating the software but not in the sensor section??

 

I had it all working fine last week on a pre release version. Only got this error today when i loaded the zip'd code.

I downloaded latest trunk version and that seems to have corrected the lack of connect issue.

I got them downloaded and re-loaded the APM,  Yes it connects know via Xbee but it doesn't talk.  HK_CGS doesn't work either.  I have tried adding #defines and i've tried several Xbee baund rates.  Somethings still not right with the .pde file.  I guess will have to wait for an update.
