Did you check the Troubleshooting Guide?

I did, but it says that the RED LED will flash until it has GPS lock but what if you don't have a GPS connected?

I've never tried running with no RC at all. If I were you I'd wait until you have the full setup with RC and GPS before trying joystick mode.

I was only going to use the joystick with telemetry modules, do you know if it runs without GPS?

Ok, so I got a Spektrum 6 channel reciever which I binded and connected up to the ardu board.

 

I can see the movements on the Setup Radio bit but still I'm not able to arm the motors :(

 

Can anyone try doing this for me without a GPS connected to see if that is the problem? I was hoping to do a test flight without having to wait for it to arrive.

 

Thanks

Can you verify you've already checked all the things in the Troubleshooting Guide I linked to above? (Mode 2 RC, Stabilize mode, etc).

Hi,

I had forgotten to set the end points to 150% on the second model I created on my DX6i, Oops!

Thanks for your help.

It seems to be flying although the vertical control seems to be a little on or off
