Gents, I've found a solution for who's having problems with the xBee being corrupted when starting Ardupilot.
Everytime I had to pull of the blue wire to not damage my xBee, but now I found a solution.

I've been looking a bit at the ardupilot firmware and as best as I can tell, no where does the code compute an actual airspeed.
The FTDI cables are out of stock in the store. I've got the rest of my hardware and need the cable very soon. Any other sources for these or is it possible to splice one together?
Would buy one if anyone has any extras for sale.
Thanks!
