Hello guys,
two days ago I received my APM 2.0 and hooked it up in my Hexacopter with the instructions.
I configured it and calibrated the esc's proper.
But if I want to arm the motors the esc's keep beeping.
I checked the signals, the APM, the esc's and the radio but I can't find a mistake!
Additionally I can say that the hexacopter and the esc's worked with the APM 1.0
So here are some informations for you.I hope you can help me.
- APM 2.0
- Radio Turnigy 9x with PPM signal
- ESC's are calibrated with the radio
- in the CLI mode you can see the correct signals
- red led (a) flashes and turns solid if I arm the copter
also you can see in the Mission Planner that it is armed
Photos from my APM 2.0:
The first shows the APM 2.0 armed,
the second the backside
and the third also the backside with the soldered ppm jumper (ppm-ppm)
(nothing is soldered at the backside but the ppm-ppm jumper)

Hey guys,
I solved it today! Because the ESC's are Opto coupled, they need a seperate energy source!
Can somebody tell me how to get 5V at the outputs?
