An APM Analyzer/Tuner? "What if "..... What if we had a whole additional computer to analyze and tune our APM's for us? Can't we design a computer to "feel" the oscillations drift etc. better then we…Continue

I'm seeing interference with my 3dr setup with 'presumably' the same hobby king set up. I can't get mavlink to connect when I have the video turned on. (different power…"
Euan Ramsay replied to Rick Eis's discussion Optical Flow"I'm not a massive soldering fan, and would prefer to buy a cable off the shelf - does anyone do one for a 2.5+?
Also - do I need to do the step:
Cut and resolder the MISOLVL jumper on the back of the board to switch the MISO pin to work…"
HeliDragon replied to Rick Eis's discussion Frying new Minimum OSD boards ~"Yes, you can. Please see my setup above your question. I run everything off a single 4000mAh 3S battery. The difference is that I split the flight battery power off my power distro board.
Distro Board I…"
Jeremy V replied to Rick Eis's discussion Frying new Minimum OSD boards ~"My question is this, I have the digital and analog jumpers tied on my minim, so it gets its power from the APM telemetry side. I have the 12v+ wire removed from my Vin/Vout on the minim, with just the ground and video signal lines in…"
Rick Eis commented on Michael Wooten's group Ritewing Zephyr and APM2"Dudz,
If you have never flown an RC plane, you might invest in a flight trainer before you fly a plane such as a Zeph2. Unless of course you have significant $ for repair or replacement. RealFlight Expansion Pac 6 even has one of Chris's…"
HeliDragon replied to Rick Eis's discussion Frying new Minimum OSD boards ~"OK so the docs over on Google Code suggest either disabling the 12v regulator all together and only using the power off the telemetry. Or plug 12v to the camera and power/video in on the OSD and it's power out goes to the transmitter. What I…"
Rick Eis replied to Rick Eis's discussion Frying new Minimum OSD boards ~"Thanks guys for the discussion -
Here are a few more thoughts on the same subject (see link below) -
Apparently some folks are flying successfully with one pack :)
Hope it…"
Daniel Alexander replied to Rick Eis's discussion Frying new Minimum OSD boards ~"Thank you for the additional input.
I've been running a 2-battery (3s) setup for a while, just as shown in the manual. However, I'm only doing this because of the rumors that using the same source is frying people's OSDs. The noise…"
Neill McOran-Campbell replied to Rick Eis's discussion Frying new Minimum OSD boards ~"Vernon nailed it.
Seriously, grab a second power source, double check your wiring and you are good to go.
I have been using the board for ages and it is fantastic, but for the love of god check what you are doing.
Also you can…"
Daniel Alexander replied to Rick Eis's discussion Frying new Minimum OSD boards ~"It seems like this questions has still not been definitively answered. Let's ignore the noise issue for a moment and focus specifically on the technical limitations (if any) of powering the video side of the OSD board from the same 3S…"
Alex Viera replied to Rick Eis's discussion Frying new Minimum OSD boards ~"Hi,
Might have answered my own question here, it seems like you can jumper and use the +5v from the FTDI cable, and not have to use the 12V that is powering my vtx? Am I reading this right?
It features two independent power and ground…"
Alex Viera replied to Rick Eis's discussion Frying new Minimum OSD boards ~"Hi,
I have 12v from a linear voltage regulator that powers my VTX and camera, I plugged the video out into my new minimosd and everything was fine, tested it for a few minutes to make sure the osd was working. Just before I went to take…"
HeliDragon replied to Rick Eis's discussion Frying new Minimum OSD boards ~"Hey all I want to dust off this old thread. I just soldered together my shiny new Minimum OSD 1.1 with its much improved and cooler running voltage regulator. It seems like just running it all on 12v seems very easy. Just build a wire that comes off…"
Rick Eis commented on Andreas M. Antonopoulos's group Telemetry over cellular IP"Harrison,
Well, the various rules and laws I think are a topic for another thread.
I just would like to see a step by step plan on doing something that someone did that was a success. Then others like myself can start experimenting. :)
Right now I…"
Rick Eis commented on Andreas M. Antonopoulos's group Telemetry over cellular IP"Yes, Harrison that looks really cool....
I just don't want to start buying things till I see what other folks are doing.
If someone could post a step by step process they have done successfully, we may discover this would be…"

Do you have a GoPro Buzz?
Ours started small, almost unnoticeable, but gradually got worse till it was very annoying.
Now we can identify the GoPro buzz in many videos folks post on the net.
We chased our small buzz in our video for days. The buzz continued to get worse as we kept…
