Hi

The motors show armed on the mission planner but will not run. Have double checked connections and calibrated escs twice just to make sure but still no joy.

Any suggestions appreciated

check to see if any of your APM';s pre-flight checks are holding up the start-up.

iirc it';ll show motor arm but wont fire the motors if it hasn';t cleared one or more of the pre-flights.

for example if you have the GPS included in pre-flight checks your motors wont run up till the GPS reports the minimum 2d lock.

Hi

I had set the battery settings too low.
