Default Futaba telemetry, Powerbox ect.

I want to know if using telemetry slows or impairs the flying quality, control or servo response/resolution?
Does logging said telemetry have and negative affect?
Does logging interval have any negative affect?

I plan on flying with all slots utilized. 7008SB RXs feeding a Royal SRS from PowerBox.

It it is my hope that FUTABA will make the 18MZ software work with PowerBox GPS2 input. As it stands now, if I use the GPS2 antennae to adjust the Royal SRS integral Gyros, that GPS signal output isn't recognized by the Sbus2 if I plug the GPS into a hub or simple Y harness.

The only way around this is to use two GPS antennas, one speaking directly to the SRS and the other to SBUS2. More weight and more cost and more complexity.
A simple program change is what I need.
