MAVProxy is a open source minimalist and plugin-based GCS for Mavlink based autopilots (such as the APM). Until recently, it was only able to run on Linux systems. It has since been updated by Tridge and myself to include full compatibility for Windows systems.
MAVProxy can be found at https://github.com/tridge/MAVProxy and an installation and user's guide is available at http://www.qgroundcontrol.org/mavlink/mavproxy_startpage.
And the obligatory screenshot of MAVProxy running in Windows and Linux at the same time (above)

Simon - I've just checked the pymavlink utilities and they all work quite nicely under Windows :)
Thank you stephen! I think this is very usefull for people which use Mission planner because of the excellent graphing utilities coming with pymavlink (do they work on windows?).
Cheers

Thanks Stephen!
I had a go at getting it all running on Windows a while back, but got frustrated and never got it done. I'm glad Stephen has more patience with windows development than I do :-)
Woohoo! Great job, Stephen!
