Problem arming motors

Hello DIYDronians,I've been following the site for many months now, specifically the ArduCopter and related projects. With pretty much no experience in RC flying, helli's or quads I decided to jump in head first and build my own quad frame. Though I will definitely be buying the Arducopter kit when released of course.Anyway my problem is hopefully very simple to fix. I can't seem to arm the motors using the Throttle Lower Right then 50% method.I have things connected via USB to the Configurator, have done the initial setup and calibrated the transmitter.FYI I'm using latest Arducopter firmware and Configurator as at 27 Sep 2010.Also note I can send individual motor commands via the Configurator successfully.Does anyone have any troubleshooting ideas or alternate methods for arming the motors?Kind regards,Christian

  • After reading further threads I adjusted the throttle trim to the lowest position. Arming and disarming now works :)
