Hardware
Extension board
The Extension Board has an optional OSD-ic soldered to it. Make sure to order it with the OSD option.
Alternatives
The gluonpilot can directly interface with the MAX7456 On Screen Display chip. It connects to the Gluonpilot's SPI port (which is available next to the FTDI connector). It should be supplied with 5V, so don't forget to set solder jumper SJ1 accordingly.
For people interested in modifying the OSD-code, this website can be of a lot of help.
Where to get this OSD-chip:
- Sparkfun sells a breakout board for this.
- This German shop sells the breakout PCB if you want to assembly it yourself.
