Re: [Paparazzi-devel] Best telemetry options for Europe

[David Buzz Carlson]

Specs state range up to 1.5 km.  Can anybody confirm that (or at least 
something close)?   There are also two different moduels, one using the 
ZigBee protocol and one using 802.15.4 point-to-multipoint.  Pros/cons 
of each?
