Hi Everyone!
I really hope someone can help with this issue and I apologise for any newbie mistakes, I’m still quite new to this.
I have an Eachine EC250 Quadcopter with the specs..
Brushless motors: Emax MT2204 2300KV
Brushless ESC: 12A
Flight controller: CC3D
Receiver: R6D 6-CH 2.4GHz Receiver
Transmitter: RadioLink 2.4G 9CH AT9
It pretty much as it is here:

There have been some modifications, FPV, lost alarm, some 3D printed parts.. but at the moment, it’s stripped back to basics,
Motors – ESC’s – CC3D – R6D – AT9
Also, I am running it PPM rather than PWM
I flew it over last year and it worked great.
I’ve come back to it this year and have found that I cannot get it to arm (previously set to Rudder Right). So, I thought I’d go through the setup again.
The first couple of times, I was able to get through to the end of the complete setup and have successfully set up the transmitter; yet it still would not arm (its not set as “Always Disarmed”).
So.. I updated Libre to Black Rhino, up’d the AT9 firmware to most recent version (V1.5.6) and have gone through the complete setup procedure again.
Now the quad will still setup ok, but in Transmitter Wizard, I only get as far as setting the throttle stick and no matter how much I wiggle it, it’s I’m not getting any feedback in Librepilot. Without this, I can’t continue with the setup.
I know the transmitter is connecting to the receiver - the receiver blinks when I turn the transmitter off and the transmitter does show signal strength when the quad is powered.
I have tried back-dating the firmware on the AT9 to the 2015 (V1.5.1) and have done a factory reset, still nothing.
I now I seem to have reached the limit of my limited expertise…
The two issues I see are:
1 – Unable to arm
2 – no throttle response read in Librepilot from the AT9
It may not be that these two issues are linked but also odd that the lack of response issue only showed itself whilst trying to fix the arming problem. I’m trying to work on issue 2 first of all.
If anyone can provide any ideas or insight I would really appreciate it. I’m happy to give more details or screenshots. I am simply stuck!
