"Seems Ok at 100 meters I would estimate (not measured) in an open space its 200mW so quite powerfull and Xbee is up to 100mW"

Nick Goodey commented on Nick Goodey's blog post Generate video and OSD with Arduino"Thanks for the tip"
Cadbury commented on Nick Goodey's blog post Generate video and OSD with Arduino"You are probably better off with a MAX7456 as it is designed for graphics. The IC used in the Video Experimenter (a sync separator )is not designed for graphics. You can find an easy to use one here: https://www.sparkfun.com/products/9168"
Jesse commented on Nick Goodey's blog post Generate video and OSD with Arduino"That's ideal to feed back sonar sensor data for when I'm flying by video!! Ordered!! :-D"
Paul Bealing commented on Nick Goodey's blog post Generate video and OSD with Arduino"A year ago I was experimenting with something similar. I modified the DIY OSD by Dennis Frie to send GPS and a bit of other data on 2 unused video lines. I built a receiver that uses a high speed comparator to recover the data and drive a couple of…"

Stefan Mürzl commented on Nick Goodey's blog post Generate video and OSD with Arduino"My plan was to add telemetry data to unused videolines, because video circuits are much better than audio. Maybe someone reads this and send a mail to me for help."
Stefan Mürzl commented on Nick Goodey's blog post Generate video and OSD with Arduino"You can do much better things with it. For example reading the "closed caption" data.
I worked on a project, but nobody was helping and my knowledge was to bad.

Nick Goodey commented on Nick Goodey's blog post Kalman Filter Code for Yellow Plane 2"I like the simplicity myself, given the time is available I will be hooking it up to the sensors and then we can see if its cosher, should be interesting "
DeveloperJohn Arne Birkeland commented on Nick Goodey's blog post Kalman Filter Code for Yellow Plane 2
"This kalman implementation looks to be very simplified. Perhaps to much so for a plane? Anyways, it is going to be interesting to see how it compares to DCM."

Kalman Filter Code for Yellow Plane 2 Special thanks to Kristian Lauszus, TKJ Electronics This is the code in the main loop UpdateServos()<code>unsigned long msDelta = LastMicros - micros(); LastMicros = micros(); //Measure time since last cycle double dt = (double)msDelta / 1000000.0; // The angle should be in degrees and the rate should be in degrees per second…See More
Nick Goodey replied to Jack Loo's discussion APC220 data drift"Just interested in your over all impression of the APC220.
One thing I need for the remote control is low consistent latency, even without instruments this is easy to see when you are driving a servo from a joystick over the air.
Have a look at this…"

200 mW TX on a 120mAh Lipo runs about 30 mins. Total weight with Lipoly 6.2 Grams, only 3.6 Grams with a 5V regulator so it runs of the main battery. The image is not great on a single Lipo cell. I will try it connected to a spare port on the RX see what the signal is like.…
