Hello All,

Is there a way to update/flash firmware on the 3dr osd other than using the cable sold by 3dr?

I have an OSD that is running Mavlink 0.9 but i would like to run latest version of Ardupilot on my APM and i don't have a cable and i dont really want to wait 3-6 weeks?

Can I:

a) Flash the OSD firmware via the APM board

b) flash the OSD via an Arduino Uno

c) run latest version of ArduPilot but change Mavlink to version 0.9?

Be glad of some help.

(I should mention that i only found that the OSD was running an old version of Mavlink because when the APM 2.5 was loaded with the latest ardupilot OSD got stuck on "waiting for mavlink heartbeats" so i went to oldest version of Ardupilot i could find and OSD booted str8 away and streamed data)
