Hi, I am wanting to run the ARDUPLANE Board in RC plane, and use the data from that via Mavlink to show the realtime flight on X-Plane.
I can get the RC TX to control the X-Plane, but what I want is for the X-Plane to just look at the Raw data, GPS, INU, ASI, ALT. and use this to show what is going on in the plane via X-Plane.
I am sure this has been asked before, so if it has, I am sorry :)

can the APM send data to x-plane as if it was another aircraft in dual player mode, that way I could just look from the control tower view and see the aircraft flying. Would need to add an altitude offset to match xplane to the actual APM altitude from arduplane.
Mac link has all the data in it that is required.
@bill
With the sim firmware, doesn't that just allow the board to get its sensor data from xplane and send commands back to fly it?
What I want is for the sensors on the ardupilot to directly position an aircraft in x-plane, via a telemetry link.
so you want to fly a real plane, and have it simulated live in xplane?
Just replace the USB cable for telemetry link of your choice
