I have recently upgraded from an APM2.0 to a Pixhawk PX4. Everything works fine
except i cannot get any Mavlink data into the Minimosd
My Setup:
Mission Planner v1.3.5 build 1.1.5260.33055
APMPlane FW v3.0.3
Pixhawk PX4 (3DR)
Minimosd 2.1 FW. Minimosd-Extra_Plane v2.2 (3DR Non-Clone)
NO 3DR RADIO USED
The Minimosd Boots up fine, says Booting, completes, then just sits there.
The Minimosd has both power jumpers soldered and is powered just from the PX4.
I have spent a couple of days on this now and tried all the setting i can find regarding the SR1 parameters,
but nothing works.
I have also tried using Minimosd v2.0 and even swapping the rx/tx wires.
Can anyone tell me if APMPlane + PX4 + MissionPlanner + Minimosd should work?
And how to get it to work
Regards
James

I had similar problem, but I solved it easily :
1. power up pixhawk with main battery and OSD connected, wait until pixhawk has blue light
2. power up analog side of OSD (gimbal, camera, video transmitter) with second battery (3S)
3. normally now you should have signal from OSD as a layer on your screen/googles
If you change the power up scheme in opposite direction, you get stuck with No mavlink data message. If you still see this message even after you have done the correct power up setup order, disconnect everything and wait for 5min to cool down everything. After the OSD board is cool again, start the power sequence again. This simple solution worked for me.
