hey guys, I've been working with this sparky board trying to get some cool features setup, so far I think I have it ready to fly and tune on an airframe (BNV). My last challenge before I install everything is to figure out whats the matter with my OSD.
It boots up and gives some startup messages (minim 2.0, waiting for Mavlink heartbeats, booting etc.) it's all center screen though it seems to have a weird "refresh rate" it is centered and visible. Once I assume it begins to receive a message from the flight controller it starts putting messages on the screen but they are in the top right of the screen and I believe that part of the words are off screen. It feels like i'm only looking at the bottom left part of a display. this is weird because it boots up center screen with out a hitch... after boot this is what I get:
as you can see part of the word is displayed "ove.." I've seen it say "Stall" and "Battery" as it seems to rotate between them, error messages maybe? I have the battery sensing setup on the FC and I assumed it would forward that data to the OSD, maybe i need to run the battery sensor direct to the OSD? Stall is probably because it's not in motion, and I have no idea what the over message is, overspeed? however my work bench doesn't move that fast so I doubt i've broken any speed rules 😊
Before I start refreshing and messing with the minimOSD extra software (this board was supposed to be preprogramed and appears to get a signal so I assume it's programmed properly) I wanted to see if anyone with any experience could give me some ideas to try.
thanks in advance
