I am using the following telemetry kit.

I have the right ftdi drivers installed on my laptop. For some strange reason, when i plug the usb adapter into my laptop(running windows 7), around 50% of the time, it recognizes it as a serial mouse.

Very aggravating, because i lose control of my laptop, the mouse pointer gets a life of it's own and finally everything hangs.

I need to restart over and over again, till it decides to work. Has anyone else experienced this? Are there any workarounds?

  • Mine running on Win 7 64bit and worked from the off, no problems.

    TX on quad power on start mission planner then lastly connect the USB to the Xbee, select the com port and speed then connect, so far works ever time.
