I've built my first quad around the Lux v2 pro F3 board using Betaflight configurator. Got it all(most) figured out and had a great time learning and look forward to much more.
The problem I'm having is OSD. I've got the Eachine VR-700 pro goggles and have tried every setup i can think of.
VTX units I've tried are TX5258, TX805, (eachine) and Wolfwhoop Q1-pro. My camera is a Wolfwhoop C5 micro.
Everything is pretty low end but this is as much an experiment as anything for now.
If I wire the camera straight to the VTX I get a clean display to the goggles. If I run the camera through the FC on a UART (camera to rx, vtx to tx) i get a black screen at best. At worst, I enable UART2 to any of the betaflight cam protocalls and it resets my receiver from UART 4 to UART 2, and I have to start over.
No combination I've tried allows me to enable OSD in betaflight and get it to stick after save and reboot. I've also tried smart audio through the UART 1 TX pad, no luck. I can't find a lot of knowledge for beginners so I may be way off base and not know it. It seems the very basics are assumed to be known thus hard to find.
This is not ultra important as I can install a buzzer for battery level but as this is a learning experience, I'd like to get all I can functioning.
I have another FC for a quad build but need an ESC before I start experimenting with that one. Knowing me like I do, I'll probably give it someone as soon as I get it figured out lol. I love to build (I have 6 finished planes and two underway) but maybe 1 hour total flight time.
Whew, sorry for the long post but hopefully I provided most of the info needed to get some help
