Need a current sensor(minimum rating 70A) compatible with minimOSD for my miniquad. Anyone knows any compatible sensor?
Thank you! :hatsoff:
This (http://www.rctimer.com/product-1096.html) sensor should work since apparently it is scaled for a 3.3V ADC like that of the Naze. This is assuming you will connect the sensor to the Naze and have it sent to the OSD over a serial port.
consider

or

The MinimOSD can be connected to the Naze32 over a serial port. Then if you have feature such as VBat, RSSI or even current sensing enabled in Cleanflight/ Betaflight, the data will be sent to the OSD and displayed. This also lets you change PIDs and other settings over the OSD. The other option is to use the MinimOSD as a standalone OSD, where the Battery voltage, current sensor output etc. are connected directly to the OSD (easier on the kv team modded version). I am not sure if the MinimOSD takes a 5V input (like the Arduinos it is based on) or 3.3V on the current sensing pad.
The SparkFun board and UberDistro also look like nice options but what about shipping?
The minimOSD accepts 0-5V just like the arduino.
Then you can use a standard APM current sensor if you are connecting it directly to the OSD or the sensor I linked to if you want to read the current through the Naze
@SK1701 if he connect the OSD directly to the power module he can only get the current and voltage details via OSD right ?
