Naze32 OSD

Hi,
Hi there any OSD (preferably cheap) that could be used with the naze32 board? Maybe something compatible with the mwii protocol or the frsky telemetry?
I'm considering using a MinimOSD (10$), but it will require to add mavlink output to baseflight. Nothing wrong with that, but if something already exists, I would be interested.
Thanks!

Thanks!
Since it uses the mwii protocol, it requires to be on the main usart so I won't be possible to use my bluetooth adapter together with it
But it seems to be an interesting ready-to-use solution.

You dont need bluetooth & OSD.
The minimOSD works great with the naze boards.

Can someone tell me some more about this OSD? I currently own a modded super simple osd for my quad but want a somewhat more intelligent osd for my bixler.
The bixler is also updated with an rev5 naze board so the minimOSD looks as a true dream. But I cant figure out what the standard options are.
Is the minimosd rigged with an GPS? or does it use the gps fitted on the naze? And what about RSSI readings. I cant see any RSSI connections to it so how does it read that?
It looks to simple to be true, just connect it to the naze rx and tx (and offcourse power, ground and video) and thats it?
Order an FTDI cable with it and go with the fun, or is there some more to it?

you will need a FTDI controller to program the MinimOSD board with the right firmware and settings.
The OSD board gets all its GPS data from the flight controller, so long as you have one connected and setup properly. It also gets all other flight data from the controller like heading, altitude, etc.. (so long as your board has a compass & baro). For RSSI you need to modify the minimOSD board or get one from witespy with all the pin-outs accessable. Then you send RSSI info to the minimOSD board and configure it accordingly.
There used to be a page on the wiki about the modifications necessary but it looks like its been removed.

That makes things a lot clearer for me! So all is possible but ill have to rig the naze with gps first. Hmm maybe ill have to put the minimOSD on my quad then
To bad te page isnt findable, even on the developers page there isnt any thing about RSSI, but in their movie RSSI is there.
Maybe ill order one, but first ill have to figure out everything
so if anyone else knows some more, please share it with me!
Thanks subaru!

Hi, someone could put a graphic explaining how the minimosd and the naze are connected to get RSSI?
Thanks!

On your receiver is a different story, search google for your receiver and rssi

Do you connect the minimosd to the Naze32 serial rx/tx port noted as number 8 in this diagram?
Also which firmware works best with Naze32 - only the rushosd zip file here?
https://code.google.com/p/rush-osd-deve ... loads/listI seem to remember reading somewhere that minoposd worked but maybe that was only with the cc3d port on the rev4 boards.
Thanks in advance.

Yes, you connect to those Tx/Rx pins, note that they are shared with the USB interface due to lack of real USARTs until Naze64pro SMP edition.
KV Team 2.2 works fine with Naze32/Baseflight. I think you need to enable Boxnames or something in the KV Team OSD GUI setup, but YMMV.
