APM 2.5 shorting servos?

Posted by Aaron Serafinowicz on August 11, 2013 at 9:22am

I am having a problem with APM Plane. Here is the background info. 

Hardware:

Turnegy 9x

Finwig plane with electronics from Finwig (Built plane first and everything works)

APM 2.5 with power module (latest firmware) 

fully charged battery

Situation:

I put everything together except the APM and tested it and it works fine, Servos, speed controller, full control. Then I installed APM 2.5 following the directions. I connect mission planner to the plane and I can calibrate the radio and see full control, even switching flight modes. The problem is I have no control over of anything even in manual flight mode. If I unplug all of the servos then I can control the motor. plug them back in nothing... Is there something wrong with my APM 2.5?

Thanks

    can you post a picture of your electronics and wiring in your plane, with everything connected?
