"@Randy, Thanks!"
"@Pete, I'll PM you!"
"@Martint, Interesting! If you want to meet, I'd be happy to arrange a time. I'd like to fly with someone in my area, as well as get some advice. PM me if you're interested! :)"
"Also note that those figures are for PAL. I think they will be slightly higher for NTSC."
"@Ben Levitt, If we use 192 pixels horizontal "data resolution", then we can transmit 24 bytes per line, and using all 21 lines gives us 504 bytes per frame, and 12.6KB/s, assuming no error correction or other overhead. This should be good enough for…"
"@Ben Levitt, This definitely planned, although more than line 21 can be used... why not the whole VBI, or at least most of it?"
"It could be done. What is the interface? I2C, UART, something else...? There are I2C and GPS/UART ports on the board, and the low voltage analog inputs can in theory also be used for bidirectional data transfer, if necessary."
"What is APM? (Sorry, newbie to all these terms.) If it's a mostly software thing, it should be doable."
I'm working on Super OSD at the moment. Super OSD is an open source (open hardware and open source software) on screen display module designed for FPVers, but also drone flyers. I have already produced PCBs (below) and I am working on some initial…
I'm working on Super OSD at the moment.Super OSD is an open source (free hardware, free firmware, free software) on screen display module. I have already produced PCBs (below) and I am working on some initial engineering prototypes. What I want to…
"Would people prefer an OSD with black/white support but with a reduced resolution of 192x128? It would still have double buffering. I am considering the idea. Let me know your opinions on this."
"Actually, since the Arduino compatible board will probably be single sided (as it is only a dsPIC and a few passive components) I can probably make them at home. I already have half the cost: a UV exposure unit, which was donated by my teacher who…"
As some of you might know I am working on Super OSD, a fully graphical on screen display, which is based on my open source software and hardware designs (http://code.google.com/p/super-osd/)Basically I am working on two versions:* a datalogging FPV…

"I posted the same questions on RCGroups; but I'd like some more opinions:
I want to ask a few questions about where to go from now:
* Would people like to see a populated (i.e. no soldering required) PCB for sale? Is it worth me manufacturing and…"
