APM shuts down motor and servos after some seconds

Posted by Antonius Lourenço Kasbergen on March 4, 2013 at 4:21am

Hi,

I'm having a strange problem with my APM 2.5 on arduplane. 

After arming and after a few seconds testing servos and motor (ground) both servos and motor stop working altogether and I have to turn off APM and turn it on again for it works, and then it stop again. 

Latest Mission Planner and firmware, what I'm doing wrong? :( 

When I connect directly to the RX servos and motor works without problem.

    @ALK,

    How are you powering your APM? Are you powering the APM with a PM or are you powering the APM with the BEC in the ESC? Do you have the servos on a separate BEC?
