Hi Ben
I have Telemetry on my DX8 you get to see Batt Voltage, Temp.. RX Voltage and with extra sensors more. Involves soldering and setting extra stuff in the plane.
I also have the Quantum Telemetry. Batt Voltage, Amp draw, Temp.
To be honest, I hardly use them. The most I ever used is listen to the beebs of maybe the Voltage drop on the lipo. Very hard to take your eyes off the plane to look at a tiny display. you will need someone to watch for you which defeats the purpose. I find it useful on my first flight with a new plane and Lipo. I someone (Very rare) ask someone to watch the AMP draw and Voltage and then set up the time for next flight and forget the Telemetry.
