Any ideas why a new Betaflight install won't arm?
I recently flashed a friends quad with betaflight, now it won't arm and I can't figure out why.
It's a fresh install of betaflight on a naze32 rev 5, with a turnigy 9xr using the orangerx module and lemonrx receiver. The receiver is bound and the channels are mapped and show up properly in the receiver tab. I set an arm switch on aux 2, and can see the indicator is moving into the arming range when I throw the switch. However, it does not respond to throttle.
I know that betaflight won't arm if the loop time is smaller than the time it tasks to complete the task list. I'm using the default 1000 loop time, with a very short list of tasks.
The motors respond properly on the motors tab, so it's not a wiring problem. I've tried starting from scratch and unplugging everything, connecting power as I would at the field with no usb. Nothing.
I added a mode on the same aux switch for horizon so that I could verify that it is not a receiver problem, and throwing the switch toggles the red light indicating horizon mode. This, coupled with being able to look at the seemingly correct motion on the mode and receiver tabs, suggests it's not a receiver problem.
So yeah, I'm stumped. Anyone have an idea of what's happening here? I have a nearly identical setup except using a d4r-ii, and I even tried loading my backup file onto his quad with no success. Holding throttle down/right doesn't arm, with or without creating an arm mode.
TL;DR: quad won't arm. Don't know why and I'm out of ideas. Here's my status, tasks, and dump.
