Hi,
my friend would like to build mobile weather station (made of copter, plane, rover or boat)
and a lite version integrating MAVLink protocol into arduino board
+ GroundStation (Tower ..) for drawing saved/ updated data charts.
So in case of arduBoat PX autopilot board you just attach some weather sensors and get data downloaded to control station.
To cut spending he would like to start from arduino board
MAVLink protocol implemented + software based ground station
(tethered version or Bluetooth, Wifi, 3G modem communication)

there's an example MAVLink Arduino example here http://qgroundcontrol.org/dev/mavlink_arduino_integration_tutorial
