Ealier I was able to see the green lines on the Transmitter calibration tab moving. After fidling wih the settings they dont move. I re-installed the firmware and got the GPS, and all the raw data to show. Now, for some reason I cant calibrate or see any input from the RC to show.
Before, the PPM led would blink, it would blink faster as I would push the throttle up..
Any clue on this problem??

Would this problem have to do with the firmware or settings?? do i need to reload any software to the APM??

Permalink Reply by Diego on November 12, 2011 at 11:40am Still the same..where gan i find info on the buttons that are on the boards??? the PPM light used to flash.. and I could get the RX/TX to work.. now the PPM is solid.. what can I do?
Are you powering the board via an ESC? What radio are you using?
All detail on buttons and LEDs is in the manual.

This will sound like I'm crazy - but try to upload firmware via Arduino. Worked for me when I had such trouble.
