This is still done today in the Arducopter community over similar radio links.

I haven't heard much about the ArduCopter (and ArduPilot) projects for a decade, are those projects still at it? I used to run a quadroter I made myself a while back until I crashed it in a tree and decided to find cheaper hobbies...

Well at least crashing drones into trees has never been cheaper hahaha. So it's super easy to get into nowadays, especially if it's just to play around with flight systems instead of going for pure performance.

They're alive and well and producing some pretty impressive software.

Crashing your drone is a learning experience ;)

Remote NSH over Mavlink is interesting, your drone is flying and you are talking to the controller in real time. Just don't type 'reboot'!
