Hello All,

I purchased new fully equipped Hexcopter from uDrones.  I've gotten it into the air and figured out how to make the telemetry work.  But I can't seem to figure out how to make the OSD and video work.  I believe I first need to power both the on board video and ground station with 12 volts.  How do I do this?  Do I split off from my lipo and feed the on board video or do I need a separate battery?  My Hex already has a XT60 male connector that looks like it's wired into the both the camera and video antenna.  The ground station unit is a RX-1260.  It has an A-B slider switch and 8 dip switches.  What do I do with these switches?  Since I'll be outdoors, the ground station unit will need a 12 volt battery.  Would a 3S1P 600mAh be enough?  I also assume I'll need a monitor or can the video be displayed on a computer?  I've also seen others using video goggles.  Can anyone recommend any?

I really appreciate any feed back.

Thanks,

Richard
