These devices can Include OSDs, specialist sensors and camera payloads. I am aware that it may well be easier to just use a Y-cable from the GPS but given that the Pixhawk has a second telemetry output and FrSky telemetry is now possible, outputting GPGGA and GPRMC sentences is possible with a software patch. Would this functionality be useful to any other users?

I'm not sure if I will have issues with the GPS protocol since the Pixhawk doesn't use the standard NMEA at 9600 baud. I'm not the one programming the board and I'm ignorant to what is feasible. \r\nUsing Telem2 more useful would be great. It is easy enough to split the telemetry cable for the OSD like we did with the APM2.x. If the Telem2 pot could be configured to send out different data, it would be better utilized. \r\nThanks for bringing this up. \r\nIn the meantime, can anyone can tell me how simple it is to tap the gps data going into the PH for use on an Arduino board?"}}
