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Here is how it looks: (This video is a bit outdated, sorry.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

Hi Luis,
Welcome to minimosd extra.
Thank you for your feedback!
You may not believe but I've already came across same thoughts as you.
Main reason for not implemented those yet: Achieving a stable version
Our efforts are focused having a stable release and if you're "new to FPV" let me tell you that we reached that state in a couple of months or so :)
MinimOSD code started in code.google and I think that's the main reason is still there. I guess Gabor could tell you the details better because I wasn't here in the project beginning.
#ifdef it's a very nice feature to have implemented for sure. We're in a good place in time to include that even more because now Arduplane and Arducopter mavlink messages are much more compliant. There were times for example when copter and plane mavlink temperature were reported in different decimal places...
I wonder if #ifdef would or not lead us to larger code space after compile... We have to test it. I think that if you would like to help in this that would be great. I'll talk with Gabor about it ;)
4 main "base releases":
MinimOSD_Extra_Plane_Pre_release_Beta
MinimOSD_Extra_Copter_Pre_release_Beta
MinimOSD_Extra (it's plane! Historically no name needed :) )
MinimOSD_Extra_Copter
CT Tool is in one only place: here
My main goals in the near future are:
A cross platform CT Tool (for example, chrome app) so CT Tool would work in Android tablets for example (studying it).
Custom fw build depending on selected features so we can fit more features on these osd (already tested but we need a tougher solution).
A separate font uploader so we could free some more space in the fw (working on it).

Guys i am new to this thread. How i can download the Source from http://code.google.com/p/minimosd-extra/source/browse/#svn%2Ftrunk%...
Hi Zubair,
You may use any svn client. I use tortoisesvn.
Miguel
After downloading and installing SlikSvn what should i do now? :(
I went to cmd and type that command svn checkout http://code.google.com/p/minimosd-extra/source/browse/#svn%2Ftrunk%...
But it doesn't do anything. Look like its stuck.
Hi Zubair,
It should be something like,
svn checkout http://minimosd-extra.googlecode.com/svn/ <your destination folder>
Then you should copy the librariesOK folder content to your local "ArduPilot-Arduino-1.0.3" libraries folder so you're able to compile.
Miguel
I know how to compile it. But downloading is kind of tricky. I am not getting any response after this command.
Then after force stopping it says unable to connect to repository at URL ......
Hi Zubair,
With tortoiseSVN here are the steps I follow to make a local copy:
1 - Open windows explorer.
2 - Create a folder where I want to download a copy of the source.
3 - Right click on that folder and choose "SVN Checkout..."
4 - Enter the url http://minimosd-extra.googlecode.com/svn/
5 - Hit ok button
I just created a local copy of the source following this steps and it all went ok.
Hope this helps.
Miguel
Thanks. It worked.
I will try that. But at the same time i would like to share my personalize Osd version https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rds9ghfxME4
You can get the minimosd-extra latest SVN (r793) from here in ZIP format:
