7) GhettOSD
You can plug an OSD to the Ghettostation and handle it on ground side.
There's many advantage on this:
- only one OSD hardware for all your fleet.
- less hardware & wire on the uav, less source of problems.
- Minomosd is quiet UHF unfriendly (433 noise)
- You can still try to bring back your plane in case of video loss.
Install:
Minimosd can be powered from booth 5v & 12v at the same time ( analog/digital separation, or by 5V only).
If you want to power it with 5v only, solder jump the pads on the minimosd.
More info on powering minimosd with 5v only:
Connect the minimosd Rx pad to your Mega uart2 Tx pad, or Teensy digital pin 14.
Refers to wiring schemes here-Hardware-Setup.
Edit Config.h according to your needs & upload the sketche to minimosd hardware. Don't forget to activate OSD_OUTPUT on ghettostation.
Once minimosd is loaded with ghettOSD, use provided configurator to setup your OSD (windows only). The first time you configure it, you have to upload the character map. Click Option/Update charset on the gui & upload ghettosd-1.0.0.mcm.
Then you can configure your settings & the 2 panels layout.
