As I understand it, some digital (DJI?) do not use the OSD chip that is onboard the FC; not sure I understand it all. Consequently, some of the FC boards that are designed for use with HD digital do not have an onboard OSD. At least that is how I perceive it. I don't really know or understand how HD digital gets the OSD data. Analog uses the OSD information from the OSD chip that is onboard the FC. Hence, VIN for the camera, pick up OSD info, VOUT to the VTX and then on to the goggles. As I see it, the analog users now have to watch what FCs they buy to ensure that it has an onboard OSD. Maybe I should start buying up FC boards just to have on hand. Anyway, I keep watching the playing field and how this whole video thing works out.

This goggle OSD is not connected to the quad and does not display flight controller specific info such as quad battery voltage. Both the goggle OSD and quad OSD can be displayed simultaneously in your feed. You can turn the goggle OSD on and off if you prefer a cleaner 'work space'. • Posts: 5,856 Threads: 47 Likes Received: 2,775 in 2,237 posts Likes Given: 7,614 Joined: Jul 2019 Reputation: 97 21-Apr-2024, 03:06 PM (This post was last modified: 21-Apr-2024, 06:19 PM by iFly4rotors.) Hi FPVme, Besides the quad battery voltage (which is more important than goggle battery voltage), then it also does not display amp draw, amp usage, or any of the GPS information such as altitude, speed, home direction, distance, or latitude & longitude. Am I correct? For me, I don't care about information related to the googles. What I need is information related to the quad itself. The battery information and Betaflight warning message are essential to me. If I can't get all that information in the goggles, then the system is even less valuable than I had previously thought. Thanks Later, iFly • Posts: 394 Threads: 51 Likes Received: 150 in 106 posts Likes Given: 256 Joined: Apr 2023 Reputation: 11 As stated, both the goggle osd and quad osd are displayed in your goggle image. All standard osd items that you program on betaflight will show in the goggle if you hook everything up correctly. The HDZero goggle specific osd is a useful item and monitoring my video signal through it, as well as goggle voltage has been critical for various reasons while out flying.

Hi FPVme, Ok, so it DOES connect to the FC to pick up OSD information. I misunderstood. As long as the OSD has all the elements from the OSD that analog has, then that would be fine. Yeah, the video signal strength might be nice. I never run goggles close enough to the edge to need goggle battery voltage. See, I have heard and read about issues people have getting FC OSD information to display in the DJI goggles. Anyway, Thanks. Later, iFly • |
