    These links will be useful to you:

    http://dev.ardupilot.com/wiki/raspberry-pi-via-mavlink/

    https://learn.adafruit.com/setting-up-a-raspberry-pi-as-a-wifi-acce...

    the latter containing various links to tutorials on how to set up the Pi as a hotspot.

    I have added the Pi which interfaces via socat (http://www.dest-unreach.org/socat/) with the autopilot and also has a wifi dongle (check compatibility with the Pi before buying, but there are many cheap ones on amazon) to communicate telemetry information down to earth on my phone (running Droidplanner). Works pretty well!
