HK 328p GPS and OSD

Post by Mayday~Mayday »

Can I splice the connection so I can have my single GPS module hooked to both my Remzibi OSD board and FC board? If I just have it connected to the FC I lose the GPS on the OSD, correct? So if I want to keep the GPS on the OSD plus use the features on the FC board I need it hooked to both? Or am I completely going about this all wrong? Thanks in advance.

I think you can't have gps and osd on one serial port.

How can you go about having your GPS unit sending info to the OSD and FC board at the same time? Right now I only have my GPS hooked to the OSD, so when I am flying I have the home arrow and GPS coordinates etc. I want to explore my options with the GPS hooked to the FC as well, so I can use GPS hold etc. Can I do both at the same time? I don't want to lose the GPS info on my OSD. Thanks

If you have just one serial port on FC, then no. GPS or OSD.

Connect the GPS to the i2c bus with a I2Cnav board. And the OSD to the serial port.
