"Many thanks Miguel :-)
And it is fun to work on the code and communicate with you both.

Hi, I used and extended the ArduPilot code for an approach to a special FPV issue: 'Where should I put my FPV AV-TX antenna' In down position video transmission is often better than in up…Continue

Jörg Rothfuchs replied to Gábor Zoltán's discussion Adding extra functions to MinimOSD"Hi Gábor,
yes, I know, and that is totally ok, that's how open source works, I like it.
I was so happy to find the ArducamOSD work and your MinimOSD-Extra work on that to have an OSD and so I was very happy to give you something…"
Jörg Rothfuchs replied to Gábor Zoltán's discussion Adding extra functions to MinimOSD"cool, I like the new horizon :-)"
Jörg Rothfuchs replied to Gábor Zoltán's discussion Adding extra functions to MinimOSD"yes, I will share them, but unfortunately the winter came back last saturday :-(
But when we will get back above 10°C and dry conditions, I will do some real test flights.....

Jörg Rothfuchs replied to Gábor Zoltán's discussion Adding extra functions to MinimOSD"yes, "zoom range" is a good idea.
And in my response from above I think I did a mistake:
You defined the max range to 250 and I wrongly read the code as 7*250.
I currently did not know what the better solution is, auto-zooming or…"
Jörg Rothfuchs replied to Gábor Zoltán's discussion Adding extra functions to MinimOSD"Hi Miguel,> There is something I can't understand. 250m is one char resolution right?No, not in my approach.In my approach the 250m is the stepwidth where the scale is resized.That meansif the object is >= 0m and <250m…"
Jörg Rothfuchs replied to Gábor Zoltán's discussion Adding extra functions to MinimOSD"Hi,reading the discussion about radar, I found it a good idea and coded a little yesterday.The GPS data in the test video is only simulated, because currently I have no time to fly.The quad comes out of the middle at about 00:09:
If you like a…"
Jörg Rothfuchs replied to Gábor Zoltán's discussion Adding extra functions to MinimOSD"Hi Miguel,
I checked your proposal, but the problem is, that the equation(roll + 180) / 90is not equal tor / 90 + 2when calculated wit int.See the following example (roll is an int):roll shall be -120°then the first gives(-120 + 180) / 90 = 60…"
Jörg Rothfuchs replied to Gábor Zoltán's discussion Adding extra functions to MinimOSD"Yes, thats right, I already did some refactoring on the code and some #defines for better readability.
And I placed a large bunch of global variables from OSD_Vars.h into the functions the really need them.
panWarn and panSetup are refactored…"
Jörg Rothfuchs replied to Gábor Zoltán's discussion Adding extra functions to MinimOSD"Ah, missed this post.
You can find my code here:
http://code.google.com/p/minoposd/
You find it in the trunk in OSD_Panels.ino, like yours.
Its working with the OpenPilot CC3Ds but the artificial horizon code will work independend from…"
Jörg Rothfuchs replied to Gábor Zoltán's discussion Adding extra functions to MinimOSD"Hi Gabor,
very nice enhancement of the MinimOSD code.
Looking at the code I found one thing:
Because the angles can be up to +-180 degrees, wouldn't it be better to use int16_t instead int8_t ?
static int8_t osd_pitch =…"
Jörg Rothfuchs replied to Jörg Rothfuchs's discussion Using ArduPilot as a Barometric Antenna Toppler - B.A.T."much harder because:
in the fin are 2 servos and CFK
But main reason is:
This is the test mock up for my flying wing;
there the antenna will topple trough the wing and there is no fin

Ken replied to Jörg Rothfuchs's discussion Using ArduPilot as a Barometric Antenna Toppler - B.A.T."Putting it upside down inside the fin would have been harder?

Jörg Rothfuchs posted a discussionUsing ArduPilot as a Barometric Antenna Toppler - B.A.T.
Hi, I used and extended the ArduPilot code for an approach to a special FPV issue: 'Where should I put my FPV AV-TX antenna' In down position video transmission is often better than in up position. But hey, bad news, sometimes we have to land... So I came to the solution of toppling the antenna. The test flight video shows the Barometric Antenna Toppler - B.A.T. - in action. The antenna is toppled down when the plane is above 25m and toppled up when it's below 20m. (Values can…See More
