Janne replied to Gábor Zoltán's discussion Adding extra functions to MinimOSD
"Is this artifact on the screen a bug in the code? I initially thought it's just something on my minimosd but it can be observed on several videos/pictures on the internet displaying minimosd data. It either a dash or a dot but its always in the…"

"Is the relay servo function somehow broken now? I'm using A9 on APM and the "relay" option works fine and I can set the duration but when choosing "servo" for A9 it outputs nothing...

What am I missing? Previously I had this working..."

"Why would you want voltage from PM? You mean the 5V or 3.3V goin into the FC?
I'm using teensy and FLVSS without any problems. If I remember correctly I commented out the FLVSS related lines in the teensy code just to be sure. Could not be happier…"

"I changed from 1.3 to this yesterday. Some things I noticed:

1. It is not enough to comment this line to disable FLVSS:
#define SENSOR_ID_FLVSS 0xA1 // 1
The Cell and Cells values are still displayed from teensy and in my opinnion that should not…"

"Smart port devices can be daisy chained. You need to look at my post: http://diydrones.com/xn/detail/705844:Comment:1817317

I'm guessing you don't own a FLVSS yet, since if you would you'd know how to connect them."

"The T1 sends GPS status but it is not very useful in the way it combines satellites and fix status:
gps_status = (ap_sat_visible*10) + ap_fixtype;

It is not possible to create a custom switch to play a track when there is a 3D fix.
T1 > 43 would…"

Janne replied to Philip Johansson's discussion Would this be a correct placement of my antennas?
"If you only get 50m then it is not the antennas but the channel. My guess is that you have almost the correct channel on the receiver but not quite. Check your channels and if using Boscam stuff do not trust the manual.
An antenna upgrade is however…"

"Picture of the plan

I'm planning on adding the telemetry radio and Teensy 3.1. My current setup has MinimOSD-Extra and FLVSS and they are working perfectly. Do any of you see a problem with this plan (see picture)?

For example:
1. Some parameters…"
