2.52beta3 is available!

Firmware 2.52 BETA3  is available.

  • New feature in OSD layout: minimap with airplane position relative to base
  • Fixed bug in FPV_manager: latest changes in Google maps API causes former application to hang in Map page.

(No changes in Autopilot and GrounStation firmware).

Some people asked me to do OSD control to show airplane position relative to base. Just to know that airplane is north or west from base. Of course groundstation shows it on map screen, but OSD don’t. Eventualy I’ve decided to build such functionality in version 2.52bta3.
For this purpose I have extended existing “back to home” control, which shows runway (base) position relatively to airplane. Now, with new property [x] airplane location this control may show airplane position relatively to base (operator), like on paper map (north is up, and base is at the center).

Arrow icon shows airplane position relatively to base (center point), on picture above airplane is south-west. Arrow direction shows airplane course. On picture airplane flies north-west.
