Trouble Flying after compiling using IDE

I am a Midshipmen at the Naval Academy working on an engineering project. I am relatively new to using the IDE to compile and upload code to the APM. I usually use MP to upload the code and have had no trouble flying it. I downloaded the code from github and uploaded it to the board but that's as far as I can get. When I plug everything, I get a no signal tone from the ESCs. I tried going to the command line interface but nothing is happening there either. I also tried conneting to mission planner via the telem kit, no luck. What am I doing wrong and what are the steps I should be taking to start flying a quad with code uploaded to the board using the IDE

Note: I am using the most recent code and the special ArduPilot IDE.

Thanks in advance.
