For a while no people have been experimenting with the MinimOSD and making it compatible to work with the Naza. They do, but the process especially for soldering is a bit of a faff on and great care must be taken.
Now there are two new OSD`s out that you can just plug the Naza into and have done with all the chew. For less than $40 for the most expensive version you cant really go wrong. They will work with the Naza Lite, M, V1, V2 all Phantoms.
S-OSD

Functions:
- Compatible with ordinary OSD display function
- Added function: Flight mode, Flight attitude, throttle channel signal data(0%-100%), receiver signal strength(if receiver with RSSI function), screen switch function(dual screen display)

Instruction:
GPS Module and LED module connection:
1. GPS and LED: Use 4P-4P connect main controller GPS port and LED port, supply power to flight controller. If S-OSD power light lits, then it is right.
2. Then plug GPS module and LED module at S-OSD port
3. Switch port: The function of switch port is screen switch. There are plenty of contents S-OSD will display, so need two screens display. One time one screen content. The screen switched by transmitter 3-step switch through switch port.
4. Throttle channel: S-OSD could display throttle channel signal data from 0%-100%. Two THRO port on S-OSD, one connects receiver throttle, the other connects flight controller.
5. Attitude cable: connects with flight controller f1/f2
6. RSSI: S-OSD could display receivers signal strength, this port is used to connect receivers RSSI port
7. Voltage detection function: wiring as picture shows
8. Video port: wiring as picture shows
N1 OSD
This is a very basic version with only a few functions.
Features:
- NAZA special OSD, no need PC parameter adjust
- Support NAZA GPS, read NAZA Compass and GPS data, could direct return direction in air
- Barometer, more precision height indication
- Three page selectable: Chinese/DJI-type IOSD/Self-definition
- Power supply from NAZA flight controller
- Dimension: 42.5*26mm
- Weight: 6g

Interestingly, I'd just noticed that S-OSD a few days ago - I was looking for something to shrink down my current OSD. The only issue with this at the moment seems to be the lack of documentation, and videos showing how it's configured only in Chinese. I might grab one next month though and see.
The S-OSD is basically a Chinese integrated solution based on a MinimOSD that neatly provides all the connectors on one board and runs the MinNazaOSD (https://code.google.com/p/minnazaosd/wiki/Intro)firmware. If you look at that site you will find all the documentation you need and even the source so you can re-program/configure it to your hearts content if you want to.
I have made a couple of MinNazaOSD's and they work great, a very cost efficient Naza OSD solution, I'm going to have one in my Tarot FY680 Hex I'm currently building...
the N1 is a bag of crap, yes it's cheap but there's no english in it at all, so I have no idea what all the settings are.
I have a N1 by the way, you're better off with no OSD in my opinion, it's more hassle than it's worth.

That's handy to know - thanks. I know you can do some soldering on the minimOSD to get it to work, but an out of the box solution (if not highly priced) will always win with me :)
If some kind gent were to re-code the N1 so you could change the language to english, I'd re-install it into my DJI Phantom
You just said it was a bag of crap ! lol

because it's not in english lol

hold down the menu button on the first "chinese" option.... and hold it down again on the first option....
voila, all in english. you also have a choice of 3 different OSDs, Custom, China & IOSD.
Didn't have much time to play with it but it seems ok for what it is!
(I'm glad studying mandarin chinese while training to be a shaolin monk paid off...)
I like the idear of a OSD on my new biuld that I'm working on now, but I think I'm out of channels, I have a Futaba 10.
And my new quad will have lifting landing gear, a 3Axis controleball gimbal and a Naza. That must be full. Lol
These 2 OSDs dont over "remote" switching of OSD views.... well the N1 doesn't anyway!
Multirotor = 4 channels + 1 for modes...
Landing gear = 1 Channed
3 Axis Gimbal = 3 channels
Still one left :D
The S-OSD does, you can setup 2 differet OSD layouts, and the 3rd "view" is no OSD
Quote3. Switch port: The function of switch port is screen switch. There are plenty of contents S-OSD will display, so need two screens display. One time one screen content. The screen switched by transmitter 3-step switch through switch port.
Didn't see that! Well there goes your last channel :P
