I use float too because saves me time in coding, but I consider that for final application convert to integer before transmission would be more efficient in terms of bandwidth. Of course it depends on the number of motes that are transmitting at the same time.
I did not find any nx_float in the type definitions of TinyOS 2.1, please if I am wrong let me know. However, if you are going to transmit between two Telos (i.e. they are based on the same architecture) you do not need nx_float. The problem then may be that in the same packet you have defined other network-type data (nx_int16_t, or whatever). To solve that you may just put everything without network type. Please, if you find any other solution let me know. Have a great Sunday!
