In this tutorial we will have a overview on both normal size and Micro Minim. OSD, how to configure and use MW OSD firmware, connect it to Naze. RX, and firmware flash. What Are Minim. OSD and Micro Minim. OSDMinim. OSD is probably one of the most powerful, affordable OSD device for quadcopter and other multicopters. Recently the micro Minim. OSD is out It has exactly the same capability as the normal full size version, but quarter the size. Minim. OSD we are referring to here is the one with KV Team Mod, which has soldering pads for RSSI, Current sensor, Voltage Battery monitor pins, so no extra soldering to the main chip required. Banggood is also selling them. Although Its more complicated to setup than those standalone plug n play OSD, such as the Super Simple OSD or E OSD, it can do lots of cool stuff, and the on screen display is extremely customizable. Some of the great features includes GPS data display, customizable style and fonts, using the OSD menu to change your PID and rate settings by linking it to the flight controller etc. Here is an example of full flight data OSD. Adjusting PID in OSD menu. Dimension, Weight, Pin out and My Space Saving Soldering. Full Size Minim. OSDThis OSD has been around for years. The good thing about this Minim. OSD with KV Mod is there are pin outs on the side for RSSI, current sensor, voltage sensor etc. In the old days, people had to hack it by carefully soldering directly to the micro processor chip, which was extremely difficult and painful. With this modified version Minim. HOuAGZ-xA/hqdefault.jpg' alt='Max Msp Patch Youtube' title='Max Msp Patch Youtube' />OSD, things get much easier. The one I bought is the latest version V2. Dimension of Minim. OSD with KV Mod V2 Width 2. Micro Minim. OSDI am amazed by the micro form factor of this tiny OSD, yet it still obtains the capability of its full size predecessor. Except it doesnt have the 1. V to 5. V voltage regulator, which isnt used very often anyway due to historical overheat issues. So it was sensible to get rid of it and shrink the size down. Check out this page for how much current it draws. The micro version is roughly 13 the size and weight of the normal Minim. OSD with connectors. Soldering Connectors. Soldering of the normal size Minim. OSD is easy and straight forward. But as for the Micro Minim. OSD, I didnt like the way how people normally solder it. So I had a creative moment, and use 9. I can save even more space when this little OSD is plugged in, inside the multicopter. And finally wrapped it with heatshrink sleeve to protect soldering joints and wires. Pool Hall Pro Wii Iso here. Connection with Naze. Battery, RX, Camera, VTXSetting it up in my quadcopter was actually very straight forward. Here is how everything should be connected Naze. Flight Controller, Li.

FAQ 2 No OSD, only picture, or no Picture only OSD. Solution Try to toggle PAL NTSC in your OSD settings in GUI. VBAT1 pin on OSD is connected to the main Li. Po battery, to read the voltage level. RSSI pin is connected to the RX to get signal strength. In this case, RX is the Frsky D4. R II, in CPPM mode, Pin 1 is PPM signal, Pin 2 is RSSI outputsBy connecting the Minim. OSD to the Naze. 32 through serial port TX and RX, Naze. OSD, such as GPS data, quadcopter heading compass data, changing PID with radio transmitter, and OSD menu and much more. But be aware that the computer connection uses the same serial port, that means if you want to use Baseflight, or Cleanflight configurator, you will have to disconnect the TX and RX from the OSD first. Without serial port connected, you can still run the Minim. OSD as a standalone OSD, to just display RSSI and voltage data. If you are using the Taranis in PPM mode, Check out this post on how to get RSSI info via a spare channel without any extra wiring  How it looks like when connected inside my mini quad. Config via MW OSD GUI Software. There are quite a few OSD firmware available for the Minim. OSD, my favourite one is the Multiwii OSD mwosd. The current version is 1. On screen display text is clean, firmware is more updated as it specifically supports Cleanflight and Baseflight. It also allows you to tune PID with OSD menu. Connection between Minim. OSD and FTDI Programmer. Either to configure it or flash firmware on it, a FTDI programmer is required. There are 5 pin connections required, DTR GRN, TX, RX, 5. V and GND.  Configuring Minim. OSD with MW OSD GUIOn the GUI, enable whatever flight data you need. Since I fly mini quad, all I need is battery voltage reading, RSSI, and timer. I use 4. S lipo batteries, and voltage alarm is set at 1. V 3. 4. V per cell, I should really set it higher. For 3. S Setup, set voltage alarm at 1. V should be okay. And my FPV system is in PAL format. One thing that you need to play around to get right, is the battery voltage value. Its way off with the default setting, and you need to play around with voltage adjust value until you get the correct reading. Here is how I did it. Default voltage adjust was 2. V on the OSD. I used a multimeter to check the actual Li. Deviceiocontrol Usb Serial Number'>Deviceiocontrol Usb Serial Number. Po battery voltage which was 1. V you can also use a voltage alarm with display. Now lower voltage adjust to 1. V on the OSD. To avoid going forth and back, we can now safely calculate the exact voltage adjust we need using algebra, and the information we now have. D We just need to know how much OSD voltage reading every 1 voltage adjust changes. We know the correct voltage OSD should display is 1. V, so the voltage adjust should be 1. Update 0. 1 May 2. OSD menu, so you dont need to connect the Minim. OSD to the computer and open GUI to change it anymore. But if you are not using the OSD menu, you still need to use the above method. Arduino as FTDI programmer for Minim. OSD I tried to use my Arduino UNO board as a FTDI programmer as it worked before with some other devices. I managed to get it writeread settings to the OSD on the MW OSD GUI software. However I was having trouble flashing firmware on it using the Arduino, I kept getting this error avrdude stk.

It looks like a data sync issue, but I made sure I connected DTR to the RESET pin on the Arduino, not sure what more I can do, so I used my dedicated FTDI programmer in the end for firmware uploading, which works perfectly. OSD Menu Adjust PID and Rate settings, Voltage, RSSIOSD Menu is my favourite feature of all, and thats mainly why I switched over from Super Simple OSD. There are so many parameters you can change without connecting to a computer. For example I can now change PID values in the field using my radio transmitter, no Bluetooth or computer required However it still cannot change roll rate and pitch rate separately for Cleanflight, at the moment they are still linked. Cleanflight firmware, the two rate values became independentTo access the in built OSD menu in MW OSD, disarm your quadcopter first.
