i have a brand new apm 2.0 and i loaded the arduplane firmware and i have wireless telemetry. the control surfaces only move freely when i have the board plugged into to usb. when powered by a battery in manual mode the planes control surfaces respond a few times and it sounds like it tries to rearm my motor every few minutes. the plane is for the most part unresponsive but its not flight worthy this way.
Im confused this is brand new hardware i have no idea where to even go from here any help is greatly appreciated

my guess is you have an input voltage issue. as it sounds like the apm is rebooting.
according to gcs via telemetry "initialising" comes on every few minutes even though the plane is not in motion.....
putting in multiple inputs into the plane such as moving the elevator up or down or moving the ailerons to many times seems to bring on the "initialising" sooner?
Please any help? really trying to figure this out......
