Spent hours at my local Hackspace last night configuring everything ready for my arducopters maiden flight. Got to the point where we'd done everything but we just couldnt get the arm/disarm to work (the green A light just flashed continously no mater what you did with the stick)
This evening at home I powered it up and YES...a solid green light. I picked up the controller did the arm/disarm things and it was arming/disarming fine and lifting the throttle made the rotors move. had it working for half an hour. Not flying as it still needs adjustment but almost.
I disconnected the battery & reconnected it and it's back to the same...the green light flashes..arm/disarm does nothing.
Anyone got any ideas?

Try recalibrating your transmitter with the configurator (and make sure your trims are all set to zero when you calibrate). If your transmitter is not calibrated properly, then the ARM command (min throttle and max yaw to the right) will not be read by the software and it will not arm the motors..
Hope that helps.
left it disconnected from the battery for half an hour...went back to it and its working again...weird
....and its fozen again arrrrgghhhh!
