Andrew law replied to Andrew law's discussion APM2 telemetry using xbee pro S2B"sry it is very misleading (the xbee -> apm -> MP part)
i meant to say xbee to apm (charge by battery)
apm to MP (connect by telemetry , xbee charge by usb)
when you connect them they should behave the same way they do when you test them in…"
Andrew law replied to Andrew law's discussion APM2 telemetry using xbee pro S2B"assuming you have your xbees programed correctly that you can loop back what you type to yourself using the loopback test in X-CTU
what i referred to as the loopback wire is the wire that i connect my input to my output on the xbee. i later found…"
Lucas Tan replied to Andrew law's discussion APM2 telemetry using xbee pro S2B"How to switch Xbee sparkfun xbp24 board from slave to master? Theres no switch for us to do that. And which is the loopback wire on the APM2 side? I am having the same problem as you right know even after configuring the 2 Xbees. "
Andrew law replied to jconsole's discussion APM Mission planner and the rover firmware"i am not sure if that will fix anything but when i look through the code.
the class AP_AHRS_QUATERNION is not included in the AP_AHRS_QUATERNION.cpp so i included that header file and many of the undefined values error disappear and left with only…"
Andrew law replied to jconsole's discussion APM Mission planner and the rover firmware"I am having the same issue when verifying the code for another application via arduino. Did you make any progress?"
Andrew law left a comment for Tom Gibson"Hi Tom,
thank you for your quick response. what i am trying to do is to implement an external GPS onto APM2 via the I2C port that locates closet to the on-board GPS. the reason for this is because the ext. GPS i have only takes 3.3V or else it…"
Tom Gibson left a comment for Andrew law"Hello Andrew, I would be happy to help any way I can, although I am new at this myself. Not sure what you meant by "which pin to use on my code". The I2C I was referring to is the external GPS receptacle on the front of APM2, already…"
Andrew law commented on Chris Anderson's blog post Tutorial: Connecting other GPS modules to ArduPilot"i have a similar question as Richard, i am working with the Venus GPS by Skytraq

however it doesnt come with EM406 connector, is it safe to connects its GND/TX/RX/3.3V (VIN) to the pins right behind the…"
Andrew law replied to Andrew law's discussion APM2 telemetry using xbee pro S2B"great news!
APM2 successfully communicate wirelessly even with 2.4GHz xbee pro 2
after they were connected in mission planner they didnt seem to transferring anything so I re-upload the firmware to the APM2. the mission planner not only showing…"
Andrew law replied to Andrew law's discussion APM2 telemetry using xbee pro S2B"i realized i made a silly mistake where i forgot to undo the loopback wire on the APM2 side. so i am guessing when mission planner tries to connect to APM2 the signal comes right back, hence "no heatbeat packets received". after…"
Andrew law replied to Andrew law's discussion APM2 telemetry using xbee pro S2B"sorry forgot to mention the RSSI led on both side of the xbee is on when i click connect in mission planner
and the switch on the xtremebee is on slave

Hello Andrew, I would be happy to help any way I can, although I am new at this myself. Not sure what you meant by "which pin to use on my code". The I2C I was referring to is the external GPS receptacle on the front of APM2, already programmed in ArduPlane, et al.
