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.
