Greetings... I just bought a new Futaba T8FG Super. After going through the process of setting it up with APM 3.0.1 , the ESC's/motors wouldn't arm. I checked off everything in the troubleshooting guide down to calibrating the ESCs, which I did…
"It is fun, but I suggest you forget the FPV & fatshark for now. Focus on getting consistent uncomplicated flights for now, within easy line of sight. Things will arise that will take some time to figure out. You don't want that happening with your…"
