"I've tried flashing 2.9.1 and it still doesn't work! I'm sorting out getting a replacement sent, as I can only assume it's a poorly soldered accelerometer or that it's dead."

I read that you should not connect your servo's positive and negative wires to the apm output. I have 5A BEC which I would like to power the apm from, but can I also connect the servo up to this? In terms of the 5A limit this shouldn't be a problem…
