Hi all
I have been working on extending the MultiWii Rushduino/KVOSD software to be what I want from a Multicopter OSD and its now where I am happy to share with a few others.
If any of you guys run multiwii and want to try out the software I'm looking for a few testers! It works on minim hardware which is available very cheaply. or if you want a decent all in one solution, look no further than this baby....

Screenshot below... until such timeIi have a day off and its not raining/working/shopping for crap in tescos...
if you run multiww with GPS it has all the goodies :) There is a lot more available on screen if you want to fill it with other stuff like GPS co-ords etc.

Based upon KVOSD R370:
+ New VIRTUAL current sensor working and yipee accurate. No current sensor hardware required and you will get Current draw and mah!!
+ Decor ladder implemented for BARO. replaces existing
+ Scrolling decor - LHS goes up when GPS speed increases.
+ Scrolling decor - RHS goes up when BARO alt increases.
+ NESW scrolling top decor changed - more subtle
+ RTH mode shows GPS RTH-xxx to better visualise RTH situations
+ RTH shows LAT/LON for recovery situations
+ MAX / Minimal screens using OSD_SWITCH. Amend via config.h
+ GIMBAL active indicator
+ MSP debug
- Font test display removed to release memory
Revised Fonts:
Smaller less intrusive alphanumerical
Crosshairs
Distance
NESW decor
Ladders
AHI + AHI center guide
RTH/HOME/ACRO/STAB
Scarab Owners Icon
Relayout:
Widened AHI / decor area
GPS speed to mid left
BARO alt to mid right
Home arrow. Changes with max/min mode
Sensor on indicators
Mode indicators completely revised
Hold Icon is amended
Removed some of the mode indication decor
I got a Tri with an AIO pro, gps, minim and a current sensor.
If you want I can give it a got.

OK mate - here is link to the repository...
If you want to take advantage of the ability to swap between full screen and minimal you'll need to enable OSD_SWITCH in multiwii
You'll also need to upload the Scarab font file using the GUI
https://code.google.com/p/scarab-osd/wiki/Downloads (https://code.google.com/p/scarab-osd/wiki/Downloads)
send me a message if need any assistance!
like to hear feedback - good or bad...
So glad it's Christmas, feel much better about buying my prezzies now. Just got to wait for Fedx to play Santa now.
Gawd this stuff has moved on a tad since I have to get some work done, but we are back now so gota play a shed load of catchups :laugh:
Seasons Greetings everyone.
Mike.
A bunch more improvements made - still looking for some testers if any multiwii OSD users out there !!
Files can be found at http://www.flypix.co.uk/ftp (http://www.flypix.co.uk/ftp)
Cheers !
Latest version is ready - Looking for a few more testers...!!
This is release candidate and I have test flown all but the latest graphics mod requested
The list of changes from KV R370 are huge...
Some are now incorporated in later releases of KV :)
Files available here:
www.flypix.co.uk/ftp (http://www.flypix.co.uk/ftp)
Installation bullet point notes:
1 - On some OSD you will need to disable VSYNC in config.h - //#define USE_VSYNC ( I will default this on final release)
2 - You must upload the new font with the GUI
3 - Press reset to load fresh defaults for the board
4 - Go configure as you need....
5 - 5v reference will be required for above 4s
Key items:
GPS time added ( requires a patched version of multiwii 2.3 - planned included in 2.4 thanks to Haydent )
Many items added to PC GUI listed below
Key items changeable on OSD menu via TX. No PC required...
Support for up to 7s
Detail: - OSD
Re layout of OSD - more Pro feel than r370
Optimised icons throughout - less intrusive
Virtual current sensor - no hardware required - surprisingly accurate when calibrated around hover / 50% throttle
Higher resolution for adjustment on voltages
Gimbal active indicator + on / off
Support for GPS time
Scrolling side bars - indicating altitude + speed change
Optional direction indicators at top / bottom of scrolling side bars
Vario moved to less intrusive slider
OSD menu items optimised for load and forget PC GUI
Main Voltage adjustable in OSD Menu - and can see voltage in menu. Much easier
OSD switch for minimal screen layout. Items can be selected in config.h
GPS co-ords automatically displayed on RTH (should be set as fail-safe...) - just in case...
RTH shows distance to home with Icon
Debug mode for Multiwii developers
All items can now be turned off / on on display via GUI. You have full control.
Detail: - GUI
Working Simulator
Working Simulator display on GUI
Full ability to view layout and impact of changes even without OSD
Support for GPS time
Reference voltage option added
Flight mode icons on/off
Scrolling side bars for speed/alt change indicators + on / off
Baro alt on/off
Compass on/off
Additional Elevation horizon + on / off
Timer on / off

Side bar arrows for speed/alt change indicators + on / off
Preset defaults to save time and demonstrate GUI/OSD better
Next release:
Fix for RSSI - doesn't work in current KV code
Fix for hardware current sensor - and move to GUI / menu. Not sure this works properly in current code either.
Optimisation of memory and speed
Large icon character maps - for those with small FOV goggles
Introduction of significant new functionality - top secret !!
Not most exciting - or showing all features...

Hi Mate
have all the features in your vid on the Minim board you sent me??
Cheers
vid wise - yep ! Most changes since yours are on the gui
A friend of mine email me with this topic here and told that I would laugh :) For first I was not going to post but... I have a time today so...
Unfortunately it is my first post here and I am sorry for being like so.
For a guy with no time to hang around like you said the other day you sure reveled the contrary because you sure tossed a lot of crap...

-So you went to the repo and sneaked the RSSI permanent fix using the analogue port...
-Did you also used Low and high bytes for the current sensor? Will take a look if I have the time this weekend ;) The weather seems to be bad to fly so I will...

Look my friend, you are free to use the software as you like and we started this project to see it evolve more and more everyday in our hands or on anothers but ... cut the crap :) we never needed to copy one bit in the past so, sure we are not going to start copy your stuff now ;D
Tell you what... why don´t you start from scratch? Then you can toss whatever you want!
Try this: http://code.google.com/p/rushduino-osd/downloads/list (http://code.google.com/p/rushduino-osd/downloads/list)
Have fun and fly safe,
-KV
^^ LOL. Henri - you really should stop smoking that stuff !!
I honestly don't mind you copying - it really isn't an issue. Its the joy of open source!
My only disappointment was you kicked the best developer off the team. That was a real shame.
Not sure what you mean about the analogue RSSI fix...
Low / high bytes stuff on current sensor - not got to that bit yet, but quite probably will need to to get the resolution need. 256 isn't enough to do purely on GUI. Its annoying
I like the sensor icons BTW - cool.
BTW introduced some more new "top secret" functionality:
MultiWii OSD NG development... Map mode 2 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UCL2uWZvvKM#)
Oh KV- just to add - fixed the PWM RSSI - working really well now!
