I am having issues getting my ArduCopter working. Here is my setup:
APM Oilpan version Hotel 1.0
APM v1.0
Ublox GPS
RC2 Code
No Magnometer
It appears that the artificial horizon is not correct. It drifts in both pitch, roll and yaw. I have the dip switch settings with position 1 down an 2,3,4 up to fly in + mode. SW2 on the board is set to 1. I have tried multiple code versions and nothing seems to stabilize the artificial horizon.
Here is a video of the issue in the configurator. Please note that the quad is sitting flat the entire time. The horizon slowly moves, but when I flip back to the page with the accelerometer reading the values are steady.
It appears that the accelerometer values are not being used in the DCM???
Please help...

accelerometer Z value should be around 408, not 0
check that, it should work
/edit: yes, like Hyon said
Plase check the offset of the sensors.
Pitch, roll offset must be zero, z-axis value : 408 is proper.
You should adjust offset.
