Problems with APM and RC

Posted by ANDRIAMAMPIANINA Feno Sitraka on July 24, 2013 at 4:57am

Hello everyone!

I am new on hexacopter and bad on electronics.

I just calibrated my ESCs and test them one by one and they work. Now I have a problem with getting my motors working together through the APM. I am even unable to power my receiver (AR 8000-X).

Any suggestions?

Best regards.

Sitraka.

@Feno,

How are you powering your APM? Are you using a Power Module with J1 removed or are you powering the APM with the BEC in one of your ESCs with J1 on? Does your receiver power up when using USB?

You have connected your receiver to the APM following these instructions: http://copter.ardupilot.com/wiki/introduction/quick-start-guide/
