I upgraded from the 1280 board to the 2560 board.
Uploaded the octa firmware via the planner. Everthing went fine. When I try connect to do the setup, it times out and says I have to upload the firmware. Iv tried resetting and unplugging, no difference. Also re-doing the firmware.
Am I missing something?
Thanks :)

What you mentioned is correct, and It must work. You should try flashing the Arducopter firmware through Arduino also. If still does not get through then just refer to my comments below.
There may be connectors issue. Many times insertion / de-insertion of the male / female connectors of the shield and APM may result in loose connection if during soldering some flux might have have gone inside the female connectors.
I have faced this problem, What I did is, simply changed the female connectors of the shield and made sure during soldering, almost no flux enters the female connectors from back side.
Do not jack in & jack out the IMU shield and APM board many times, if it is working then just do not jack out till you retire the board.
