2.4GHz is not a problem.
The 868MHz models however can output 500mW and this large amount of power might cause problems. From my experience, the most problems lie however with the RC and GPS receivers, and not the gluonpilot module.

I'm using Xbee 868 set to 200mW and all works perfect.

What is the distance between the XBee and the gluonpilot, or do you use the extension board?

xbee is placed on a sparfun extension board about 40cm from GluonPilot and ~80cm from RX
