I'm new to this area. So any help will be greatly appreciated. Here is what happens.
I have a Hexacopter which is working fine with Mission Planner directly connected using the USB.
But when I use Xbee modem to communicate nothing happens. I have a XBP09-DP module with software version 1002.
Here are some things I've done.
I have changed the Xbee baud rates to 57600 and 115200 and nothing works. When I connect the copter using the USB cable it uses 115200 baud.
I've un-bricked the xbees several times changing the baud and VID. Nothing happens.
I've used X-CTU and did a atnd command and Xbees discover each other.
I've updated the Hexacopter firmware to the newest version.
For the laptop side Xbee the red LED is on and on the Copter side the blud LED is on. Other LEDs doesn't come up except when I do a diagnosis commands from the X-CTU.
When I start the Hexacopter by connecting the battery I can see some data are diliverd to the Laptop. But I think this data doesn't make much sense. But after this initial thing nothing happens.
Thanks in advance.

hello
first you should update the xbee version to 1062 if im not mistaking
second try to look for any misconnection in the xbee ports
when the xbee paired you should see the rx tx orange led flash rapidly
