I recently contributed this new plugin for Telegraf, Influx's open source telemetry agent.<p>This lets you collect metrics directly from a Mavlink stream, for example from an ArduPilot drone flight controller.<p>The end result is that you can now use standard telemetry pipeline tools - Telegraf, InfluxDB/VictoriaMetrics/TimescaleDB, and Grafana - to visualize livestreaming and historical data from drones.<p>I've been using this for the past few months professionally and it's been awesome to be able to use Grafana's graphing capabilities to plot things like vehicle speed, energy consumption, etc.
