You need to add a HC-05 (or HC-06) bluetooth device, but then what you are requesting should work.

Thanks for the quick response.
I can see the telemetry data on my radio. (Using Frsky xjt, x8r, a converter and Pixhawk )
Is this how it should be done. viewtopic.php?t=7640

I can not find how is it done to a Turnygy 9x or The 9xtreme board. All I find is for the taranis radios.

Have a look at this post: viewtopic.php?f=126&t=7987&p=105359&hil ... me#p105359.
It includes instructions on installing a HC-05.

Note that the Android device needs to support "standard bluetooth" as the HC-05 is not a "low energy" device.

Set the "BT as Trainer" option as "RX" or "OFF" and see if it works.

Also, make sure you have "Bt Telemetry" ON in the telemetry menu.

What are you using on the Android device to display the telemetry? Are you sure it supports SPort telemetry?
