Futaba Multiwii not talking….

[dusted]

Ok so I am a bit of newbie to this whole multiwii thing and was hoping someone could help me…

I have a Multiwii 2.5 Board connected to a Futaba R2008SB Receiver and Futaba T8j Transmitter.

The two are binded as I have checked on a DJI unit I have here but when the reciever is plugged into the multiwii there is only a red flashing light.
Opening Multiwii GUI I can see all the settings for the copter the live view of the roll and pitch are working etc etc just there is no feedback for the
RX and TX..

I have reversed trottle and pitch as people mention and also increased all the end points to 125 on the hand unit, but still no love….

Hope this is enough info to get started

Is the receiver getting power from the FC?

[dusted]

Yep its getting power but nothing else, flashes red when connected to multiwii and I get solid green when its on the DJI Naza plugged into the SBUS single port..

[waltr]

Do you have a small servo to plug into a receiver channel just to verify the receiver is outputting the correct PPM pulses?

[dusted]

I have two receivers both had been binded to a dji phantom with no issues at all

[dusted]

I've gotten a little bit further, supplier sent the arduino sketch I reloaded it and it all seemed fine when connected to USB.

As soon as I plugged the battery in its like it wipes the board or something?

Receiver goes back to flashing red and settings in multiwii GUI don't show
