Ardupilot Mega (APM) resets itself

Hello everyone,

 

When I power APM from a battery through the esc/bec, the board has the leds flashing when is doing its calibration, is it normal that during the calibration or after the calibration to restart the calibration process when I plug the usb to the board?

 

I'm trying to run my HIL simulation, but whenever I try to read or write the EEPROM, or connect/disconnect to the APM Planner Simulation, it restarts all over again, is this why I can't see any servo outputs? Is this normal? Any ideas what could be causing this?

 

A picture of my setup has been included. I'm using APM 1.02 with APM board 1.0, oilpan, 7.4 v lipo battery, esc, APM Planner (the newest one), USB connection to my laptop.

 

Thanks in advance for your help.
