This Mini OSD FOR APM 2.6 AND APM 2.8 is a mini Arduino based on-screen display board. It’s tailored for use with ArduPilot Mega and the MAVlink protocol and designed to be as small as possible.
Its main components are an ATmega328P 8 bit microcontroller with an Arduino bootloader and a MAX7456 monochrome on-screen display. Programming is done through an FTDI-compatible 6-pin cable.
Mini OSD with FOR APM 2.6 AND APM 2.8 is companion On Screed Display (OSD) Board for APM. It reads all the MAVLink data in the APM telemetry stream and overlays it on the video stream if you’re using an onboard camera and wireless video transmitter. This is useful if you’re flying in First Person View (FPV) mode or don’t want to use a laptop at the field to see your telemetry data in the Mission Planner.
