Since I'm building a FPV (first person video) based quadcopter, I need something that will display the copters telemetry a display or goggles. I'm going with the Minim OSD v1.1. I like that it is a mini Arduino (328P) based on-screen display board.
Thanks to Steve and his mini quadcopter FPV videos -- I'm going to build one for myself! Over the next few weeks/months, I will be chronicling my adventures of selecting and sourcing parts for the copter (with Steve's input/help).
My buddy Steve over at Finkbuilt just posted a new video on his YouTube channel he shot from his 250 sized Quadcopter and it's spectacular! Steve took this video at Gas Works Park on a nice sunny Seattle day capturing the experience in HD. He gets around a 6 minute flight time from the copter he built. I'm hooked -- Steve, I want one!!
I prefer to buy Made In U.S.A. products when I can and was surprised to find out that Probe Master makes their probes right here in America. While you can find multimeters still made in the U.S.A. (Fluke), the test probes are typically made in China.
Mavromatic demonstrates the PentaRef by VoltageStandard.com using an Agilent 34461A 6.5 Digit Multimeter. The PentaRef is a great tool to test the accuracy of your digital multimeter (DMM) easily.
