Re: MultiWii OSD - MWOSD

@izeman - for current sensor issue I think in cleanflight there is a setting to do with multiwii current. Probably need to check/uncheck - or use the corrector as you indicated above. It may be that over time cleanflight has changed and this needs to be enabled by default now. Could you left me kno...
