What is the level of effort or possibility of having OSD on the Iris+.
I have seen a video of the original Iris that had an open telemetry port that was used for the overlay.
Looking at the PixHawk on the Iris+ both telemetry ports are already taken.

I've found Christian Elsen's installation guide very helpful as well. There are many different ways to skin this cat.

I ended up using the 3DR FPV kit ( http://store.3drobotics.com/products/3dr-fpv-osd-kit ) with the external camera and taking power from the balance plug. Lots of others are using the GoPro, but I wanted an FPV option that didn't require me to have the GoPro and/or gimbal installed all the time.
I'm currently running on a not-yet-upgraded IRIS, so I had an available port. I may need to tweak things after the upgrade.
The following are useful sites as well:

Is this in reference to an iris or Iris+?
The issue on the Iris+ is that both telemetry slots are in use from the factory.
Actually there is a video posted on youtube from the facebook group:
