Iphone and Android App Ground Control Station with Mavlink is in Progress
I have successfully built an API that will work with Ipad/ Iphone and will be able to port it to Android. This app can create missions, follow live mavlink .9 (Still working on 1.0) data with telemetry data. Cool thing is that it is a cheap cable to make. I want to know how many people would be interested in this App and the cable. There will be two versions one for jail broke devices that will have a few extras and for regular IOS and Droid OS. If there enough buzz I will give a lucky few in couple weeks a free beta pass through iTunes to be able to test and use for flight. What the app does is that it send a mavlink message to the xbee or 3d radio back and forth so you be able to fly and track using your tablet or phone.

Zachary go for Mav1.0 as 0.9 is getting obsolete now. All future development in done under Mav 1.0.
jD-IOBoard have support for it already and so does MiniOSD.
Mission Planner has been switched to Mav1.0 too. There are still 0.9 executables included on releases but for how long... Who knows.
QGroundControl (original author of mavlink) already switched to mav1.0 some months ago.

Mavlink 1.0 was ported. Just need to work with further radio testing before I issue out the app to testers for beta testing. Also, working on Ipad retina images for new ipads. It will still will work on older ipads.

Sounds awsome. Id be interested in an Android version for non-rooted devices. If its good it might be just the excuse I need to buy a tablet. :)

Mr. Eldridge, I am also a developer and would be very interested in testing or assisting in anyway with iOS version.

Caught this late! Me, I'd be very interested, in fact I'd pay good 'app money' for it!
Although only if i get to test it first :)

I would definitely make a $$ contribution to this project for an android app. Especially if it scaled properly for a tablet. Buying the Asus Transformer Infinity in a couple weeks :) I also have a rooted EVO 3D if you are looking for beta testers.

Would love to help you test as well as be a customer if you get it up on itunes. I have a iOS developer account, quite a few iOS devices you could register and I could test any apps, just let me know if you need my device ID's. Also, a few of the devices are jailbroken as well. Let me know, would be glad to help
