I have started to add functions to MinimOsd code.
At first i did it for myself only. Added many functions i thought i need. Then opened this thread.
after a while, Pedro and later Miguel came, and things started to happen fast. :D
They have optimised the code and added even more things to it.
They have worked hard on CT, and it became a great tool!
Thank you Bough! :)
By now MinimOSD-Extra got a pretty advanced OSD.
Here it is in action:
Added:
- Changeable unit measurement (US, metric)
- Airspeed
- Home alt
- Battery Percent
- Battery used mah
- Current Draw
- Time From Startup (cleared at takeoff to show exact flight time)
- OSD Menu
- Variometer
- Wind horizontal speed and direction, and also the average wind speed of the last few minutes.
- OSD on/off
- Switchable secound screen
- WP distance
- WP heading
- Crosstrack error
- Warning messages for Lost GPS fix, Stall, Overspeed, battery volt, battery Percent, RSSI
- Efficiency, glide distance & thermic notifier. 3 in one panel
- OSD Brightness
- HAM Call Sign
- After flight summary
- Trip distance
- Temperature
- Smoothened horizon
- Real heading
- RSSI
- Vertical speed
This functions can be turned on and off, and placed on different screens now, by the Config. tool.
Also RSSI, switching mode and channel and unit measurement, Stall speed warning, Overspeed warning, Battery warning volt, Battery percent warning, RSSI warning, can be set in new Config Tool.
We built in a new way of setting video standards. Now OSD does not guessing anymore :). You can set it fixed from CT. It is in "Video Mode" menu.
Here is how it looks: (This video is a bit outdated, sorry. I will make a new one soon.)
The MinimOSD-Extra project is here: Link
This project is the developing version of the official Arducam OSD located here: Link
The latest stable version is: 2.2
The latest version can be downloaded from here: MinimOSD-Extra R800
Username: MinimOSD_Extra
Password: Top_Secret
CT is included. (The FW for Plane, Copter, Character upload and the character file is in the "FW & Char" directory inside CT directory)
We are sharing it to see videos you make using it! :)
Enjoy

I'm having a really weird issue, hoping someone can help. I recently had a minimOSD (1.1) stop working on me, just received a new one. Reflashed it with minimOSD-extra. When the copter is not armed, if I move it around the horizon/pitch/roll indicators update immediately on the OSD - as soon as I arm the copter and am flying, there seems to be a good 1-2 second delay between what is actually happening, and what I see over the OSD.
Has anyone experienced this issue? I've tried re-flashing and the problem persists. I'm not really sure how I can troubleshoot this further.
Thanks in advanced!
Best,

I've been using minimosd extra on my plane for more than a year and I love it. However I've installed it on my plane and it only works if I have made a 900mhz 3dr radio connection to the radio module that's in parallel. I can see my mode and change it, but no other parameters appear (GPS, RSSI, Voltage) all are 0 and continuous warnings.. Until I connect from my laptop to the 3dr module, then everything lights up, voltage, rssi, gps, etc gets displayed. I can then disconnect and fly... but it's hardly practical :)
Is there something special in the copter module that I'm missing?
Is it possible to show decimals like 0.6m for Home altitude?
For all flying multicopters alt above the ground is critical.
Most of flight controllers are using MS5611 pressure sensor with 0.1m resolution.
It will be great to see decimals of altitude if it is,
lets say less then 10m above the ground level (home altitude).
This range and decimal option can be configurable.
Looks like to enable decimals in alt to be always shown the following changes
in code need to be done:
In OSD_Panels.ino line 585
osd.printf("%5.0f%c", (double)(osd_alt_to_home * converth), high);
should be changed to
// if Altitude above home/ground is more than 10 meters we show decimal in home altitude
if (abs(osd_alt_to_home) < 10 ) { osd.printf("%7.1f%c", (double)(osd_alt_to_home * converth), high);}
else { osd.printf("%5.0f%c", (double)(osd_alt_to_home * converth), high);}
Having Arduino dev experience I can't proper open and compile
the project from the sources.
Can someone recompile the code to hex with this changes?
Or guide on how to open and compile project sources properly.
Hi all,
Congratulations for your project. Is there any way to use it as a standalone OSD by connecting a GPS without APM?
Regards.
Love the new version! No more issues for me on the copter, everything is good and workable. I do get a high v speed warning though all the time, even when sitting on the ground. I'll have to check my settings. Thanks for the hard work everyone!

Hi Raph,
I think my filter is quite the same as This.

love the MinimOSD-Extra project! really appreciate the work that has been put into it.
I have a question about powering a MinimOSD 1.1 (running 2.4 extra) with 5v from the APM only. I'm trying to eliminate rf noise coming from the 12v's voltage regulator (details: http://diydrones.com/forum/topics/minimosd-1-1-without-12v-power).
What is the general consensus on running MinimOSD 1.1 without a separate 12v, tying the analog/digital sides? are there any special considerations or anything I should be worried about? I'm trying to avoid blowing up the minimosd.
thanks!
Does it works for everyone now?
You can also post videos where everything is perfect! :)
Please do! :)
Gábor
