Pixhawk PX4 to support analog sensor I/O?

Are there any plans to include support for the Pixhawk PX4 ADC sensor I/O (2x3.3 VDC, 1x6.6 VDC) in upcoming releases of the support package for this hardware? I think this would vastly broaden the potential applications of this HW platform.

Thanks Jones99. We are always looking at ways to improve the support we have for the Pixhawk FMU.

For advanced Simulink Users: Device driver "blocks" can be developed and used as noted in this link: <Device Driver Development>.

We will definitely consider adding a "ADC" block in the Pixhawk BSP. Thanks again for your input!

@Jonas - if you do create your own peripheral block - please consider uploading to File Exchange/Github http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/ to share with others.

We'll add it to the list of pixhawk resources so others can find it.
