Hello everyone

I am building a quadopter using the cube orange + and the here 3 + gps and a few other sensors and stuff . everything was working fine yesterday when I flew it to check a couple of things and then when I came back and connected it to my mission planner it did not connect . the flight I did was in a dusty area so removed the cube from its carrier board and cleaned it as well . I am using the same cable I have been for a while which worked perfectly well . now when I power on the cube sometimes it boots up fine other times I get a solid range light beneath the cube and the here 3 keeps rotating between different colors constantly .Please help, I am lost on what to do now .
