First – good to hear the copter is rebuilt. I have one to do as well. I hate copters sometimes. At least I know the issue – pilot error!
OK so good that the upload using config works. Happy with that. I hope also the eeprom clear in there will be of value too.
For fonts.. I think there is some misunderstanding here. To me its clear as I know how it works but I definitelyy need to document this somewhere. I can see how this would be misinterpreted.
What is loaded on the OSD is never known to the GUI So if update the OSD font to say large, restart the GUI and the GUI simulator will show default. Unfortunately that is the way it works. It was only ever an aid and the GUI sim doesn’t truly replicate the OSD. It would be possible to improve, but the memory overhead is just too much for me to accept unfortunately. Also think how long it takes to update a font – it’s the same in reverse to truly read fontfile from the OSD!
For the GUI, it always loads “default” at start. It doesn’t remember. It would be possible to change this so it remembered the last used font – but same issue that it is not in sync with the OSD would apply. So I think maybe nothing to gain.
Damn... If I had known that! .....I've suddenly come up with a guilt feeling
What I probably would do in your case would be to use a variable that is saved in eeprom and declare the font types with it. E.g. default = 0, large = 1, and so forth. When the GUI downloads the data from the OSD it reads the variable and loads the appropriate font type in the GUI.
Finally found the culprit, it was my LC filter, it made the input voltage drop below 4.5V which is definitively too low for MAX Chip on the OSD. Now there is nothing left, which could hinder the mayden in the next days.
However in the #define INTRO_VERSION it states "MWOSD - DEV 1.5.1". I changed mine to "MWOSD - 1.5.0" It would be cool if you could change that every time you make new builds. I use it to identify which version I have installed on the OSD.
When I first saw the new fonts in the video I just felt the numbers didn't look right. They are shadowed where as the rest of the fonts aren't. I have now edited the font numbers to make them look more aligned to the rest of the fonts. I also made cosmetic changes to many other fonts and corrected the error found in the crosshair.
Thanks Leo. Apologies for delay - have been away for last week. Font amended in main repository
Changes look good to me.
What do you think about the fonts for the alphabet in this one. Feedback I have had is that larger numeric / smaller size alphabet is great, but the alphabet fonts could do with changing to the more square style like the numerics. But still retain the smaller size. Thanks to Schnupperm for this font style...
I've been trying for hours to get a accurate reading out of my current sensor. I cant seem to get the numbers right.
I'm running the micro-minim(kv mod from RTFQ) as a standalone, on V R370(its the only version I was able to get voltage to work), I have thishttp://www.readytoflyquads.com/rtflyer-power-module current sensor,I'm running 4S lipo.
It reads the amperage just cant get the values dialed in. I can get it to read 0 but when throttle is given is only rises to ~10a (should be ~20a).
R370 is kvosd - so prob why your not getting an answer. The current sensor stuff is completely different to MWOSD and I can't remember back that far to help much. Only thing can suggest... make sure using 5v voltage reference if using current sensor. You'll have all sorts of challenges trying to calibrate if not set right
Hello! Just changed my Cc3d firmware from Openpilot to Cleanflight (latest Betaflight). With Openpilot was using Minoposd fw to read flight battery voltage hooked up with voltage divider to Atmega Adc6 (pin19). Now changed minimosd fw to latest R1.5. But i cannot read voltage anymore, because as i saw that in Mwosd it is on different pin. Where in sketch can i change that. Cannot find any info in google. I am not programmer, but i think it is not so difficult. Just do not want dismount everything and desolder and solder to the right pin.
hi all, i have a question, i have instead of a direction to home arrow a few letters n,s,e,w, i know what it means, but why i do not have the arrow like everyone? is there a way to change from the letters to the arrow?
I need some advice concerning the display voltage option. My OSD board has this option. I have it connected directly to the lipo (plus) to read voltage. I set up the display as stated in MWOSD guide "Calibration". Fully charged 3S lipo at 12.6 volts. Adjusted it to 12.6V on the display using "Voltage adjust". Now, when I take to the air the voltage display jumps down to 12.3V, a difference of ca. 0.3 which I have throughout the whole flight. When I land after the flight and turn the motors off the voltage display will jump back by ca. 0.3 volt on the OSD display, in my case 11.1V. In the air just before touchdown it shows 10.8V on the display. Is this normal behavior?
Yes its normal. When high current devices like motors draw current there will be a voltage drop on the main power source, i. e. the battery. The more current drawn the voltage drop will be more significant.
Thanks. I just wanted to make sure that I've done everything correctly on my setup. To compensate I think I will just add 0.3V using "Voltage adjust" (edit 2) or set the alarm lower by 0.3V.
Edit: For reference I'm using v1.5.2.0 - R1.6 pre.

Hello, from a card MultiWii I set up a minimOSD, it works not too bad but I have wrong information such as altitude or speed, plus the summary at the end of the flight is false or blank
I do not see or I planted myself in the config
Thanks for your help
I'm sorry for my english, i'm french and I use google translate
