A new OSD for FPV - PlayuavOSD

Hi,I want to share a new OSD - the PlayuavOSD. It is new but not totally unfamiliar. It is created by integrating a variety of excellent open-source projects. Many thanks to the developers for their efforts and dedication.

This project is licensed under CC 3.0 BY-SA and GUN v3. You can find all information about this OSD at http://www.github.com/Playuav/playuavosd, including the source code, the schematic diagram, and the configuration tools etc.

Inevitably there will be bugs and improper designs. But as an OSD, I don't think it will cause crash:-). Though most functions have been realized, there is still a lot to do, such as the implement of UAVTalk and DJI CAN. If you are interested in it, please share your opinions and suggestions. Thank you.

  • lol my pleasure to help you Michal. Honestly I don't understand why there is so few people using this playuav osd depsite the fact it's a really really good alternative to the BIG font of minimosd. Moreover, form factor is good and STM32 excellent.

    I like it very much and have let 3 minimosd on the shelves for now. With my Vector OSD, it's my favorite OSD.

    Nice fly !

  • hi, 

    You've got 4 wires for telemetry ? Have you try to force "Telemetry" from mission planner in initial setup/ optional hardware /osd ? > just clik on 'minimosd picture'.

    If you have got a FTDI you can try to output telemetry feed with ctrl+F, Mavlink to the COM where your ftdi is plug 5v,tx,rx,gnd of playuav to test it s not a pb with your pixhawk config (in this case, your pixhawk is plug with usb and connected to MP)

    In my case : all telemetry is default setup in Mission Planner.  

  • hi

    1/ Try to reverse rx and tx 

    2/ check telemetry serial speed in playuav config tool AND mission planner

  • I'm sorry I'm not sure about blue light. I must check this after work.

    Perhaps you could look at my video at 0.15 min :  https://youtu.be/K_rhIYWg0L0  to check wires.

  • Are you sure telemetry is correctly plugged ? 

    - for video you must have (from left to right) wires on :1,2 (in) and 5,6 (out)

    - for telemetry (from left to right) wires on : 1 (blk),6 (green) 7 (blue) 8 (red)  

    >>> if you not apply power to telemetry, you will not have video feed because board is powered with this - is blue light ON ?

  • Hi, 

    Like you see on my screenshot above, you right : you must have osd display (without signal input).

    But you say "I can't get any video" - for me OSD is not video - it's only osd. 

    Some people have pb with 1st generation Playuav board with max7456 chip. Now it must be AT7456. Cf here :

    Perhaps have you got another VTX to test ?

    Sorry, I can't help you more.

  •   Just installed my PlayUav OSD into my Pixhawk, wonderful OSD!  I ordered two more.  Great alternative to Minim.

  • Some screenshot to show the new change and accuracy of datas made.

    These screenshot show the 3 Panels -

    Some alert and other stuff are not well configured on my side (I just didn t take enough time to make it perfect in osd tool > climb rate for example).

    Because this is done under HIL, is not so accurate but it explain well how it's could be in real condition.

  • Thanks @Jean-Marie PRIGENT to add the the relative altitude and airspeed. The firmware and Config Tool has been published. Open the Config Tool, it will tip you to update. After that, you can use the Config Tool to update the latest OSD firmware. More information can be found at release note "Release_en.txt" under the root folder of Config Tool.
