I did the maiden flight, FPV Style, of FrankenQuad and the first thing I noticed was the sheer amount of 'stuff' on the OSD! In the picture below, you will see what I'm talking about. Some of the items are very helpful such as the battery voltage and if you have a high tilt on your camera, the horizon markers are very helpful. But wow there is a lot of stuff on that screen lol.
This was a completely stock flight of FrankenQuad and I wanted to fly it with bone stock settings in the RunCam Split, Flight Controller and Stack-X ESC. I will definitely be turning off a LOT of these items lol. And just for comparison, I have included a screen shot of the HD footage from the RunCam Split. It was a cloudy day so it is not as bright as it should have been. But both images are from the same camera! How awesome is that?
Edit: The other thing you will notice is the double black bars in the image. My screen in my Aomway Commander Goggles may show 16:9, but it is just a stretched 4:3. For some reason the default settings in the RunCam Split is to have full screen OFF, which will give you what you see here. It basically shows a 16:9 ratio, and puts bars expecting it to be shown on a 4:3 screen. But once you put that image in a 16:9 editor, it will add the left and right black bars. But turning on full screen, I am now able to fill the screen with the image. Again, I wanted this to be completely stock for the first flight.
