Hello, I buaght the following products from 3D Robotics.

and I have a 5.8ghz 500mah Transmitter.
I have connected the Tx to the MinimOSD and the camera and succefully used it, I even designed my own OSD with the nice tool they have, but it is a mess.
I have soldered my own wires to the 6 pins on the minimOSD with shrinktubing along with the power connector.
I have a bixler and there is litle space in the fusulage for all these wires. Now what I am asking is how can I use the video transmitter cable connector to make my wiring pretty becuase I have no Idea wat the white connector part at the end of the cable is and what plugs into it and my battery and ESC has got Ultra Dean plugs on it so what is a nice way distrubuting the power in the bixler without a whole ball of wires.
Any help wil be apretiated.
Regards

My first question is; what video transmitter are you using?
My wiring diagram (if you will excuse me writing a diagram) is...
Power:
3S battery positive connects to camera power and minimOSD video-in V+
MinimOSD video-out V+ connects to video transmitter power V+
3S battery Ground
Connects to camera Gnd and minimOSD video-in ground
MinimOSD video-out Gnd connects to video transmitter power Gnd
I made a custom cable with connections as per above and an extra video cable connecting the camera video out to the OSD video in and the OSD video out to the transmitter video-in.
Edit #3: The video transmitter cable shown doubles up on the power. The video-in servo style plug carries power as well as the power plug. In my setup I don't have the power plug or the audio plug, just the three wires for the video which also carry the power.
As you can see the wires is out of control
