  • Are you looking for a telemetry over a video (embedded into a Video signal)? If yes, Eagle Tree makes good stuff. Not the cheapest though...

    If you do not (and won't) have a video downlink system then just get the telemetry module made for the APM 2.5 board (from the store on this website) and follow everything on the Mission Planner software on your laptop... You will use the sensor outputs in APM and won't need to purchase separate sensors.

    If you go with telemetry over video route, then you will need to get a separate sensor for each data you want to follow... More expensive solution...

    There are other options as well but it all depends on what you are looking for...
