Added total flight time (sum from all flights) in post flight statistics page. For FC this is time when FC is armed, for single OSD and Pitlab AP this is time from system start (or last store base before takeoff) till landing.
Battery capacity/cutoff is readed from FC (pixhawk/APM) at startup, reflecting last FC settings made by GCS. And selecting battery from OSD menu sets new capacity/cutoff to the FC.
In FPV_manager (page OSD ->settings) added options for reset/update odometer and total flight time. Important for those who transfer OSD/AP to another airplane.
Added OSD MavLink telemetry output on UART1 port (buddy flight port). Option activated in OSD menu -> service -> UART1 ->mavlink. These messages are available on USART pport: HEARTBEAT (required by MavLink protocol)
SYS_STATUS (battery voltage/current/mAh, discharge percentage, autopilot sensor status/errors)
VFR_HUD (airspeed, heading, throttle, altitude, variometer)
GPS_RAW_INT (GPS position, altitude, course, speed over ground, sat
Note: Baud speed for mavlink output can be set in OSD menu->service->UART1.
Proper DO_JUMP command handling when selected from OSD menu->mission allows now to split large mission into several sub-missions with easy selection from menu.
Fixed bug in barometric altitude settings: OSD ignored barometric altitude from Pitlab Autopilot and presented GPS altitude instead.
After fighting with some bugs in Mavllink2 protocol, new firmware 262beta3 is available.
Bug was discovered in OSD->Pitlab Autopilot data interchange (it may affect STAB/AUTO mode), but may occur also in OSD->Pixhawk cooperation and result in wrong data received by OSD.
We are proud to announce new MavLink-enabled 2.62 firmware.
This firmware is dedicated for present OSD/AP/GS users as well as for pilots using third party flight controllers with MavLink protocol (e.g. APM or Pixhawk) who are looking for professional, functional and easy to use OSD for their airplanes or multirotors.
Our OSD integrates seamlessly with these controllers, presenting navigation information from controller, and also providiong some functionalities from GCS (ground control station), in most cases allowing to fly copters and execute missions without laptop and live connection to GCS.
First BETA version is available now (link to current version is in menu at left side of this page).
Note: Version 2.62 only with OSD board (PCB) version 2.2 or later.
After many months of work and test new official release 2.60 is ready.
Many thanks to all users participating in beta-tests, your feedback makes this version even more stable and reliable.
This version is available for free for all users, and will work with all hardware version, even first BETA boards. But this v2.60 is the last version working with all boards.
New firmware 2.52rc3 is ready to download and test.
There is only one bug fixed in autopilot’s diversity functionality in CPPM1/CPPM6 mode. All single RC input modes and diversity modes with SBUS were not affected by this bug.
