how to arm arducopter 3.1.r5??

Posted by mark on October 27, 2013 at 11:25am

So I just updated the APM to 3.1.r5 and now I cant arm. Does anyone know what I need to do to arm the copter in 3.1x? I have a gps lock. I am pushing the left stick to the bottom right corner. What am I missing?

thanks in advance.

    Thanks yall. Just loaded up Mission Planner and saw that I still needed to calibrate the RC radio. Did that and all good. In fact--------> BRAVO to the dev team. I like the new look of the mission planner and I love the changes (whatever you did) because it makes my quad feel...well, much more stable. Loiter mode is more stable (actually it stands almost still), alt hold smoother.  Going to try out a mission later. 

    Devs --NICE WORK!  Love you guys! I am [one of] your biggest fans :)

    If you are connected to mission planner when you try to arm it should tell you what check is failing.

    Correct calibration is now mandatory
