Hi all,
I'm working on a GCS for Raspberry Pi and the official 7'' touch display. An Oplink modem is connected directly to the RPi using a serial connection. The interface is written in Python using Kivy, a touch optimized GUI library. In the long run I want to build a video link using a second RPi on the model.
Below is a screenshot of the current version and the code is available on gitlab [1].

I would like to ask for some thoughts on what the most important features or telemetry information is I should add.

Hi Alex,

that's looking great!

When I started implementing an android client, I first of all showed the GCS health panel.
In the field, this is the most important information you'll need, because this might prevent your flight controller from arming.

I tried to make it look like it looks in GCS:



Maybe that's a good starting point for you as well?

Yes thank you, I agree that this definitely important information.

That android app looks great! Downloadable?

This looks like a really interesting project, I can see me adding a Pi Zero to my ground station.
