Mavlink/minim-extra osd return to home arrow and distance issue

Posted by Ryan Crotty on August 26, 2013 at 6:59pm

Hey guys got minim-extra 2.2 running on my mavlink-osd and everything seems ok, still don't see some of the charset icons that I've seen from extra such as the actually battery percentage icon.. my biggest issue is the return to home arrow and home distance are just frozen as soon as i arm and take off. They have frozen at different positions and values so I believe that is it receiving some sort of signal at first... Any ideas? All functions of the APM 2.5 work perfect. All other icons receive correct data and displays is accordingly. This is a critical icon/data for long FPV flights.

    So I believe I have figured it out. I do not believe that adrucopter 3.01 the latest version is 100% compatible with minim-extra 2.2 as I installed minim osd 2.0 and all functions work as they should. I am going to try the 2.4 beta version of extra tomorrow and see if that is working..

    Well I have tried powering up both ends of the osd while updating firmware, I will try going back to the stock firmware and even the beta 2.4 extra, funny thing is, the arrow seems to work fine while unarmed, as soon as I arm the arrow locks the distance is a random number, and even the home altitude does not lock and just displays the current altitude.
