Hello Fellow DIY'ers,

I have recently bought a ready-to-fly w/ basic electronics Arducopter 3DR Quad for Udrones and am having trouble arming my quad.  I read the wiki for the arducoptor and the autopilot mega to gain an understanding of both.  But, when I power up the copter the A & C LEDs (Gyro Calibration and GPS Lock) keep flashing in the alternation manner and never go solid.  I even took the copter outside to try and allow it to get a GPS lock, but it still failed to obtain a lock and calibrate the gyros.  What can I doing wrong?  Any guidance and pointer would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Donald
