Re: [Paparazzi-devel] Paparazzi specific OSD project

[Prof. Dr.-Ing. Heinrich Warmers]

Dear Chris,
same ones from the mikrokopter project made this also about 3 years ago.
There solution work well even for PVI. You can see same Videos.
They use a avr processor for communication.
Maybe with this you can use same new  messages for downlink and must not
change the source code of paparazzi.
The chip generates a lot noise, a metal child may be necessary.
Regards
Heinrich
