Put vtx power in osd? #26

Open TestPilotIan opened 2 years ago

TestPilotIan commented 2 years ago

Is it possible to add vtx power to the DJI OSD overlay?

a few of us in our club run with auto temp control off so that if we crash we don’t automatically loose video when disarming, but if we do crash and have to do the walk of shame, we manually either turn down the vtx power to 25mw or turn auto temp control on.

Full blown hilarious reactions result when you get back, take off and fly away forgetting that you’ve turned the power down to 25mw, rinse and repeat.

having the mw selected on the DJI OSD overlay would be a major plus and stop us taking off at the wrong power levels.

or is this already possible through the existing hacks?

Thanks

Yes it is possible, but I don't think anyone has done it. Sorry, that's about all I know right now.

Edit: I believe that (currently) adding anything to the overlay disables DJI overlay. Maybe if you highjacked an existing element..

Thanks, I’m sure once I’ve plucked up the courage to root my googles, I’ll give it a go.

Cheers Ian

I wouldn't worry about rooting it. I have rooted both my goggles and about 10 air units/vistas without issue. Sometimes you have to try a few times before it works tho. Also it can be easily reversed. Just be sure you're on the right firmware.
