We wanted test xplane simulator with xbee (2.4 GHz)
We try to connect xbee to apm, change port com for com4 change baud rate to 56700 click on connect a pop up windows appears to indicate us the status of connection. Pop up windows indicates us a time out of 30 seconds, we see the level of connection indicate 1% for some reasons applications freeze because connection fails
We try xbee with HK Happy kill more grounds stations we notice that it is a late between data and device
For example : I change several times the mode flight for manual, The time that Happy killmore Grounds stations change this parameter are 1 min
On APM windows dos, i see that a mavlink packets send by Ardupilot are some errors .It indicates : MAVlink Bad packets connection fails
What can i do to fix this problem? Help me it very important !

We recheck all settings for 2 xbee
We made xbee test suggested in wiki : http://code.google.com/p/ardupilot-mega/wiki/Xbee and we noticed that there are errors in data send by other xbee in airplane. The result of this test indicate that only bad packets that received by a ground xbee. What can we do now, do u think this problem are relied to a firmware inside to two xbee ?Maybe one of other xbee cannot understand protocol code message send by another xbee . It is better for us to change the 2 xbee ?
Thanks you for your advice !
verify your xbee settings, you must be getting data loss. check cabling, xbee settings etc.
