Hello,
I've been unable to arm the motors on my quadrocopter. I am using a Multiwii 328P and have the Max throttle at 2000 and Min throttle at 1000. I have tried to use stick combinations but that hasn't work. I also tried using a AUX 1 switch, and using the programmable grid, but that failed too. I can see the values of the throttle, ya aw,roll, pitch and AUX 1 changing, but nothing happens. How can I get this flying?
Thank you!

Re: Arming Motors
Make sure that you have calibrated the accelerometer and gyro.
Place your quad on a level surface.
Do not move it in any way.
Throttle stick low.
Yaw stick bottom left.
After light flashes allow sticks to center.
After calibration has finished, LED stops flashing.
Throttle stick low again.
Yaw stick top left.
Wait for lights to stop flashing.
Try and arm.

Re: Arming Motors
Do have you ACC calibrated correctly?
Is the Quad levelled when you try to arm?
check out your config.h --> #define ONLYARMWHENFLAT //prevent the copter from arming when the copter is tilted

Re: Arming Motors
Have you set your Minthrottle in the firmware high enough? Beware, in new Versions you have to set it in the UI and the config.h setting is ignored. Mine defaulted to 1050 which was too low to make the motors spin.

Have you switched off BARO?
