that's the heart this only works if you use mavilink
pixhawk talks to the pixhawk or Apm in the plane or quad gets the gps data then makes a calculation  move's  the servos as the pixhawk has built in servo driver all good

i do have a another tracker that works on rssi signal to it users 2 RC305 5.8 receivers  one looks for the strongest signal and points the other to it  ;D
