I was having the same problem after following the very same tutorial. I took the advice of Fibericon and played with the export scale. I had to increase the export scale to 100.0 (previously 1.0) in order for the model to display properly when compiled in XNA. Alternatively I decreased the distance of the camera from 5000.0f to 50.0f and the model became visible.

This brings a new question of why? the suggested export scale based on this help page is 1.0. http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Extensions:2.6/Py/Scripts/Import-Export/Autodesk_FBX

The scale of my models objects are all 1.0. My code in XNA is identical to the OP's.

Irregardless, it's working. Thanks Fibericon!
