Reciever Inputs not working

Hi,

I'm new to APM but have had other UAV H/w working the past.

Just got my APM1 soldered it up and attached Receiver and ESC's.  Calibrated the radio.  All good.

Then I did.. I don;t know what... changed something I guess

Now, sensors all work, USB works,  I can see flight data changing when I move the APM around.

However, in the settings page nothing I do can make the radio inputs to IN1-IN4 appear in mission Planner.  During calibration all input stays at 0.  After calibration all 8 channels are set to 0-3000.

I'm at wits end!?  What settings have I mangled to prevent APM from seeing the inputs in IN1-IN4?

Any hints How I can debug this to find out what the problem is.

One other note. Not sure if it's related.  I tried CLI->Setup->Radio.  Nothing   Just hangs at "Radio Setup" prompt and never returns.  Nothing happens.

Thanks,

Garth

  • Well, I have no I idea what fixed it.

    Erased setting reloaded firmware.. 8 or 10 times.  And suddenly it's working again.

    Thanks for your ideas.

    Are you powering the RC rail with an ESC/battery? You can't operate on USB power alone with APM 1.
