I still can't wrap my head around the 3DR telemetry system. Other then allowing you to tune PID and connect to MAVLink over a very big range, if I have frsky telemetry, it pretty much does the same thing right? Also, it would not be possible to view telemetry data from the telemetry radio on the 9x transmitter unless we use the JD-io board right?

I saw this video and the connection via BlueTooth is possible.

Perdification,
I am no expert in APM 2.5 but I recently bought the controller with 433Mhz telemetry link. Ground station telemetry consist of a USB device that plugs into my laptop. The Air unit connects to my APM 2.5. This allows me to make changes to the APM board without having to physically connect my laptop via USB cable to my controller. I can also watch live telemetry on my laptop when the Multicopter is in the air.

The only way to get the telemetry data to your Tx it seems, is by using the JD-IO board to convert it to Frsky protocol. Otherwise I'd have to lug my laptop to the field everytime I fly, which is kinda troublesome.
