Does your camera respond when you take a pic? can you hear the shutter sound?
Are there images on the card?

Guess i can blame it on a senior moment I did not forget to take lens cover off but i did forget to connect the cable to my Tablet/Galaxy Note , My old Quad worked on 2.4 oh well I'm somewhat back to normal MAYBE.....

I also forgot to remove the grey bit of packing that holds the camera from swivelling from left to right...

Great, glad that you found the cause...
I usually forget to put the sd card in or forget to format.

Yep. Missed a great video opportunity last night because the SD card was still in the computer from an earlier session.

I hate it when that happens.

I have done that with all of my cameras so many times. I try to remember to put the SD cards back in the cameras as soon as the copy finishes to avoid this.

I now have a spare SD card on the back of the controller.

We learn from our mistakes!
