The 3dr radio is an example of SIK firmware modem. There are others, not just 3rd 'clones'. Early 433mhz USB 3dr modems has a bad interference problem on USB2/3, they were very cheap on stock-dumping sites for a while. 433mhz UART modules are fine, it was only the one with the onboard USB adapter that was the problem. Later models are probably OK I guess.

Like Dave says, they don't mesh (point to point only) and they don't have encryption. They do have discrete channels, so accidental collisions are not a big deal.

Not sure what 'fault  tolerance' means exactly. They are both packet radios with acknowledgment and checksums, so dropped/garbled packets are resent.

Basically, they both work fine in typical usage scenarios (one uav, one GCS). You need to configure them right of course, see details on the wiki.

Hello,

3DR one I have not used. No need to. The XBee works great every time which for me makes it the best.

The XBee is a common parts you can buy around the globe. It will do mesh networking allowing one ground module to act as the coordinator and the aircraft ones to be routers that route the messages to each other.

I do not believe the 3DR radio has encryption. Meaning if you want some guy next door to have the same module and send your drone commands that's ok I suppose. Not sure about fault tolerance etc. It appears to be based on a generic chipset. I see so many different versions on Alibaba and eBay for less than 20 dollars.

Lisa/S maybe using the same chips but they have added extra features that make it attractive and it has a smaller form factor. Here's a link to the 1bit site (http://1bitsquared.com/products/superbit-cyrf-module) I'd recommend that one if you really just do not like XBee for some reason.
