New and in need of Help

[Yarrum]

So I have been given a drone that was left behind by a renter. The drone is a Uair R10. It has the Xbee telemetry system. The only thing that is missing is the remote. I know what remote to get based off the website but how do I set up the telemetry system for my laptop or phone?

Thank you for your help.

I need to make 3 post before I can post the link to the drone.

Spektrum DX4e transmitter is the one I am planning on getting.

how do I set up the telemetry system for my laptop

Do you have the module that plugs into your laptop??? Also, I hate to be a humbug, but I can't find a link to the software for setting up this thing.

This is the only thing I could find for software. Evidently this thing uses MAVLink protocols, but not sure if the Ardu "Mission Planner" would work for you. Here's one link having to do with software.........

As a last resort, you might try "Mission Planner"........but only as a last resort..............if you do, I would start here...........

Get something with at least 6 channels and an LCD display.
