I'm having some strange problems setting up an APM 2.6 board within Mission Planner.
The Firmware updates fine, then connecting to the board through USB, the calibration of the board saves ok. The problem arises when I try to calibrate Radio. Regardless of how I connect the Rx to the board (The standard 1 to 1 connections or cPPM using channel 1 with a jumper over the signal pins of channels 2 and 3), Mission Planner doesn't 'see' the radio so I don't get any green bars to calibrate the throws. The Rx is bound correctly to my Tx (Tx is Spektrum DX6 and Rx is Orange R615X)
Occasionally MP refuses to connect to the board with the radio connected but that isn't every time. Even when connected and correctly seeing everything else on the board, the radio is a 'stopper'
Has anyone else seen this problem and if you have, what's the cure.
Thanks in advance
