Hello.I have MinimOSD v1.1 and it works fine when APM telemetry is configured for 57600. But my XBEEs work on 9600 only. So if there is a possibility to change OSD's serial baudrate to work on 9600…Continue

Leigh Green replied to Alex.CCCP's discussion APM Planner + ArduStation for antenna tracking."Leo - I have several Arduino boards here including some handy shields, my initial plan is going to be to grab the PWM output coming from the ardustation since it is doing fine with all the calculations and the mavlink code and everythign else in…"
Leo Hogg replied to Alex.CCCP's discussion APM Planner + ArduStation for antenna tracking."Hello,
Do you think it would be possible to build an antenna tracker with an arduino board using standard motors and rotary encoders. That way, the motors could be geared appropriately and that would mean not having to buy expensive hi-torque…"

Burt Green replied to Alex.CCCP's discussion APM Planner + ArduStation for antenna tracking."Leigh
Wonder if we might be related? You seem to think like I do.
The idea of clean OSD with the MiniOSD sounds good, I might give it a try.
The last link I already have in place, is a patch ant in the 900 mhz range.
I found that as stock the xbee…"
Leigh Green replied to Alex.CCCP's discussion APM Planner + ArduStation for antenna tracking."Good job Burt.
I've gone a bit more permanent as this xbee will be permantently boxed up with the AS - easy to get out of course...but because the way I've put it together you can still use the FTDI port on the Ardustation for programming…"
Burt Green replied to Alex.CCCP's discussion APM Planner + ArduStation for antenna tracking."Well from your last post, it looks like you tried it and works for you too.
I added a picture, on the xbee the blue wire is RX on the Xbee. the blue white is ground.
I used a servo cable, so black is ground, red in not connected, yellow is rx from…"

Burt Green replied to Alex.CCCP's discussion APM Planner + ArduStation for antenna tracking."Alex
Been waiting till someone posted this. Glad to know just where to connect to the USB 3DR, one small change.
I use my xbee right now for both to computer with USB, I have some wires connected to go to the tracker. I connect to the RX and ground…"
Leigh Green replied to Alex.CCCP's discussion APM Planner + ArduStation for antenna tracking."Another thing - I always fnd that if I go to flash my ardustation I can't do so with the xbee installed - you have to uninstall that, flash with FTDI, unplug power, plug in xbee, then turn it on, etc...Otherwise each time you use arduino.cc to…"

I'm very keen to see how you go with this. You are a few weeks ahead of me as I am yet to finish the biuld but the chute is in and it all revolves around it. (X8 wing). We will chute land 100%.

Already trying to dig into the code, but still do not have a complete understanding of its structure to operate with."
