    Hey guys,


    Arming problems. I’ve been flying a coaxial X8 octo and got it to arm pretty consistently, and recently decided to cut power to the bottom four ESCs and changed the code to a quadcopter (and changed the wiring accordingly) to try flying it that way, and now it doesn’t want to arm.


    I’m using a MultiWii Pro (V2.3) FC and the blue LED seems to be blinking. Digging through other forums I’ve seen people suggest recalibrating the ACC and MAG from the MultiWii GUI, but I tried that and it didn’t solve the problem. Note: the blue LED blinked on the octo set-up I had and it still armed just fine.


    The travel on all my channels are from 1000 to 2000 and the throttle, pitch, roll and yaw all respond perfectly as they normally do, but the damn thing just won’t arm.


    Any help would be greatly appreciated, this is my first RC drone and am not too keen on the troubleshooting for the electronics.


    Thanks!
