Best place is to start at QT website: https://www.qt.io/

And one more option is MavLinkCom library which is part of AirSim, it already has visual studio 2015 project files, just run

"MavLinkTest -serial:*,115200 -logdir:d:\temp -logformat:json

and you will get a stream of all the mavlink data you could possibly want in a json format :-).

If you want C# instead of C++ there is also a LogViewer WPF application in there that can talk directly to the Pixhawk, it can also visualize the data, both as a graph, and as a path on a Bing map.
