Hello all. Newbie here (first post).. I'm having issues flashing the ArduRover firmware.

I'm using the latest pixhawk PX4 from 3dr robotics. 

The issue I'm having is that when I flash the Rover firmware, I can't get telemetry or GPS signals. If I flash other firmware such as the quadcopter, I get gps and telemetry.. I've tried the stable version, latest, and older version of the rover firmware and no success. 

I've tried flashing using APM planner, mission planner, and qgroundcontrol. Only if I use qgroundcontrol will I be able to get gps to work (under quadcopter).

When I flash with rover the pixhawk's main LED will be a solid white. This is even when I don't get any GPS signals. 

When I first flashed rover, it did work. I got GPS and telemetry.. Somewhere in there something happened so that it doesn't work anymore.. I'm just kind of at a standstill as to what to try.. I've tried everything I could find.. (wiping computer of drivers+software too). I've even tried using a completely different computer from scratch, still no luck..

Any ideas? Faulty pixhawk? Anything I could try?

Thanks!
