First time out after attaching a GoPro 3 to my Hobbyking Sky Eye. Most of the flying is autopilot loitering - you can tell when I switch to manual because the "attitude demanded" indicator freezes in place.

The on-screen gauges were created in Dashware and used the telemetry data from the Pixhawk's binary log.

The engine RPM is computed from the Pixhawk's voltage monitoring data multiplied by the throttle level and the kv rating of the engine.

I do not currently have a good way of displaying the current MODE of the autopilot without manual editing, which is a pretty glaring omission. This unfortunately seems to be outside the scope of Dashware, which only deals with numeric data.
