New APM, RC I/O not working.

Hello all I'm new to the site.

1. I have just got my APM setup and have tried the test code for the RC input and I'm only seeing 1200 on all ch with the TX on or off I would think i would see some noise or something even if I had RX issues but the RX is working with test servos.

2. Here is the other issue. I tried the APM Dancing code and my test servos work on outputs 4-7 but not 0-6.

I only have the red power light on the APM no blue PPM light or Orange Light. So I'm wondering if their is something going on with the failsafe / mux or is their is a hardware prob with the board and i should see about return to Sparkfun.

Thanks
Tyler.

    Sounds like you've got bum firmware. Here's how to update it if you've got an AVR programmer.
