Hey guys,
I'm new to this so much be using the wrong terminology but this is what I'm trying to achieve:
I have a 3DR Radio Telemetry Kit - 915 Mhz (US) and I would like to send "Fly to here" commands to my drone which is operating in "guided mode" and receive back the telemetry data from the USB point. I want to do this in Python and was wondering if there was any example code anywhere that showed:
How to read Mavlink messages received by the 3DR Radio Telemetry Kit from the USB point?
Write "fly to here" messages to the USB port to be transfered to the APM via the Telemetry Kit?
BONUS QUESTION: Does the telemetry kit's USB device simply relay data in both directions. i.e. if I write something to the USB port is it automatically sent to the other end?
Thanks for you help, sorry if any of these are stupid questions.
Nick

Mavproxy can send commands to to APM. As for the bonus querstion, yes. What goes in one radio's input come out the others output.
EDIT: It looks like the most simple solution is mavproxy.py to receive the telemetry data. But can you send commands to the APM over telemetry with mavproxy?
