PX4 Autopilot gets Graupner HoTT Telemetry Support
The PX4 autopilot now supports the Graupner HoTT telemetry system bringing live flight data right to your transmitter’s display.
Real-time Flight Data on your Transmitter Display
The latest PX4 firmware now supports telemetry for all HoTT transmitters and receivers. With the current release you are able to view Lipo voltage, altitude (barometric) and onboard temperature so you can monitor your airframe status live without needing to look at your ground control station.
Work is currently underway on supporting current sensors as well a the addition of a range of GPS properties such as heading, altitude, satellite lock, satellite count, etc.
Setup Tutorial
Getting HoTT telemetry running with the PX4 is simple to setup. To make it easier for you we have put together a step-by-step tutorial video:
For more information, take a look at the HoTT Telemetry tutorial on the PX4 wiki.

Now that's very cool. I think that's the RC system rated out to 5km straight out the box is it not? Certainly high quality gear that's for sure.
