I am got the Futaba Telemetry up and running a few weeks back on the Herkules III (great help from Andreas) and i am much happier now i have a mAh drawn value displayed on the TX LCD Display real time.
I have made 5 flight tests noting the consumed current and then a charge cycle on the LiPos to see how it lines up and the charger agrees with the telmetry (practically spot on) been running it up to 13,000mAh and then landing.
Charger puts back around 6,600 a Pack
Here is the data logger on the SJ and the upgraded breakout PCB in the background (please excuse the DOF i couldn't be bothered to get the flash gun out)

Very happy, although i do feel they shouldn't stick the 2 PCB's back to back in the factory as it makes it very tricky to mount, i feel it would be better to supply the adhesive pad separately for those who want to mount them this way.
Next to delve into the data logger output.
