That sounds a good plan Sandro. Rest up and recover mate, we need you here fit and well! Looking forward to the next revision. Thanks

Err, why should we lag back and use old Arduino ? - this creates problems when working on newer projects at the same time. one "conflicting  return type" should be rather easy to fix ?

Comment by George on May 10, 2012 at 4:33am

@Andke, I'm not experienced enough to be working on two projects at once, so it wasn't really an issue for me, but I get your point. Other issues arise in the 023 > 1.0 at a depth of coding I don't understand such as:

virtual void write(uint8_t);

errors unless it's replaced with

virtual size_t write(uint8_t);

There are changes in wiring.h as well. Again, all this is beyond my knowledge base, and I wasn't trying to convince you that 023 was the only answer, just that it was working for me. Would be interested if you do sort out a patch that allows a successful compile on 1.0.

Cheers mate.

Thanks - yep, you solved one problem, more spawned:

In file included from ArduCAM_OSD.cpp:77:0:
ArduCam_Max7456.h:97:40: error: two or more data types in declaration of ‘write’
ArduCAM_OSD.cpp:138:5: error: cannot declare variable ‘osd’ to be of abstract type ‘OSD’
ArduCam_Max7456.h:78:1: note: because the following virtual functions are pure within ‘OSD’:
/usr/share/arduino/hardware/arduino/cores/arduino/Print.h:48:20: note: virtual size_t Print::write(uint8_t)

I will try to solve it, I hope the authors are ready to move ahead too.

Maybe not the best place to put this, but as I know a few of you here want/need RSSI I thought you may fine this useful. It's a quick and nasty hack to get an RSSI indication on screen while we wait for the upgrade, although it doesn't use MAVlink or the Minim.

If you grab one of these OSD's from Hobbyking, identify the 1k  voltage divider on the BATT2 input, remove it and plug your RSSI output into it. I have done this with Dragonlink, and get a voltage display from around 20v with RSSI is high (~3.2v on DL) down to about 7v displayed when RSSI is at failsafe (~.9v). As this OSD works in parallel with the video signal, it should be easy to tie in to your current video systems. You must power the unit with a voltage no less than 2s and no higher than 4s on the BATT1 input. The little OSD unit allows you to shift the on-screen text to may different places on the screen, so you can just set it up to a clear bit of screen when Minim is running. Cheap and nasty solution to get you RSSI until the next release, hope you find it useful.

For those interested, I made a Firmware and a version of OSD_Config.exe that handle RSSI panels, and of course it's working (tested with turnigy 9x receiver).

I cannot see Flight Mode in my minimOSD screen, but I can see it in the configuration panel. Did I miss something?

I use minimOSD 1.0

@airmamaf

Excellent mate, thank you.

Comment by Chris Kreuzer on May 21, 2012 at 2:09am

Any updates planned for minimOSD next time????

Im waiting for mAh and kmh and ARMED DISARMED and something against the charset BUG

Comment by airmamaf on May 21, 2012 at 3:35am

What is the charset BUG you have ?
