Re: 3DR_RadioTelemetry

I've had mixed luck with those radio setups. I have a genuine 900MHz 3DR set, and one knock-off "air" side. The latter is pretty much crap. The 3DR ones do work OK after a bunch of playing with baud rates and settings. Let's see... Right now on the ground side I have 115K Baud, 96 Air, ECC off, Mavlink and Op Resend on. IIRC it worked better at 57K Baud on the air (AQ) side. I also haven't updated firmware or the Config tool in a while. It works fine as a telemetry downlink, with acceptable packet loss, but setting/saving parameters can be hit/miss. I've never tried XBee but I understand they're much more reliable.
