I have been troubled by this program all week. I have tried everything everyone has suggested on here. The radios show that they are corrected to eachother by the solid green light. And then if i try and connect with mission planner i will then get a solid green led with a blinkin red led. Same on both devices. However the blinking red light is bright on one and hardly visable on the other (air side). I have my telemetry radio plugged straight into the apm 2.6. Not using an osd at the moment. The telemetry radio air side on the board says R_AIR_V1.0. And its a 915mhz. Hope someone can help me. Also might add that i tried a different set of radios and had the same problem. No Hartbeat Packets.

Thank you for the help. However I was able to stumble upon the problem while back. It was in fact the wireing for the telemetry was incorrect. But thankyou.
I have the same radio and the exact same problem. Can you point me in the right direction to solve the wiring issue?
Thank you!

Never mind I figured it out... Unlike most comm lines that you connect RX to TX and TX to RX, the R_AIR_V1.0 has the nomenclature on the PCB wrong and harness that comes with.. For the radio to work connect APM RX to R_AIR RX and TX to TX. 5VDC to 5VDC and GND to GND.
The red comm light is now bright and works on mission planner and tower.
I just bought the same item and the wiring described on diagrams found in google don't match completely. Have you got a solution yet? I hope you see this. Thank you.

Can you read settings for both radios via MP or 3DR Radio Config Tool?
