DF robotshop rover W/xbee

DF robotshop rover PCB v1.5
I am using a arduino wireless shield with SD
Xbee pro series 1
the rover runs fine when controlled with the terminal using a USB connection
the problems begin when using the shield and the xbee
rover responds to commands from the terminal serial port
BUT! after a few commands the rover dies or just moves slightly at each key stroke
tried changing shield - swapped out for DF robot I/O expantion shield but recieved the same results?
Any Ideas for a cure?
xbee seems to work well with other projects ( temp. reading sent to serial terminal )
thanks - JDH

2012-11-22 01:30:47 Could you please post your codes? Maybe it's caused by the wireless communication. The communication speed should be much slower than USB. So what about the commands flash rate? Try to extend the interval of the sending commands!
