Q & A:

Q: I cannot figure out how I can send Mikrokopter Way Points to it wirelessly as I am forced to disconnect the connection I had previously with my wireless to make the data connection to the debug (10 pin connector) with your board.

A: To send waypoints you need connect Smart-OSD JP2<>Debug port in Navi-Ctrl and JP3<>wireless modem (XBee, BT, etc). In Global OSD parameter you must set Transparent Uart port in Xbee port and Direct or Buffered (you must check last parameter - some wireless modules needs different modes).
