BrainFPV replied to Andy Little's discussion OSD with vector graphics compatible with MinimOSD
"Hi Andy,

Very nice development, good to see that other STM32F4 based OSDs are starting to show up :). For prototype soldering, I recommend using a stencil (check out oshstencils.com) and a vacuum pen to place the components. I have been using a DIY…"

"Hi Roberto,
Yes, the VR uBrain is indeed similar, the Brain is even smaller, so maybe we should have called it the Nano Brain ;).

The OSD uses approximately 15% of the CPU, out of which 5% is for outputting pixels over two SPIs with DMA and 10% is…"

"Thanks. We are planning to open the hardware in the future. The connectors are JST-SH 4 pin and 8 pin. Compared to Pixhawk, which is also a great flight controller, it has an integrated OSD and is much smaller. So you can easily fit it on a 250 mini…"
