Axis Flying Thermal FPV CVBS Cameras & compatible cameras – controlling camera settings via radio – change color map/palette – save color map/palette
parts:
– a microcontroller – ESP32-C3 or Arduino Pro Mini 8 MHz / 3.3 V – $4-5
software:
– download firmware, docs package
– read readme.txt
– flash microcontroller firmware – see docs/flash-esp32-c3.pdf or docs/flash-arduino-ide-exported-binary.pdf
– connect the camera, microcontroller, receiver and flight controller – see schematics/ folder
– configure OpenTX/EdgeTX – see docs/OpenTX_EdgeTX.pdf
The firmware works with Axisflying 256, 384, 640 thermal cameras and probably with many other compatible thermal FPV CVBS cameras. There are a lot of clones on Ebay and Aliexpress: thermal camera 256 .
Axisflying cameras: 256, 384, 640 (not available anymore)
TC256 256×192, 9.7 mm, FOV 18° x 14° n/a (tiny field of view!)
TC384 384×288, 9.7 mm, FOV 26° x 20° n/a
TC640 640×512, 9.1 mm, FOV 48° x 39° n/a
compatible cameras:
256 256×192, 4 mm, FOV 45° x 33° $210
256 256×192, 6.8 mm, FOV 26° x 20° $200
256 256×192, 9.7 mm, FOV 18° x 14° $180
384 384×288, 9.7 mm, FOV 26° x 20° $550
640 640×512, 9.1 mm, FOV 48° x 39° $820
ATTENTION: some of those cameras don’t have a working RX/TX port, which means you can’t change the settings. I got one of those cameras – it has a green pcb on the back and a focus ring. My other noname 4 mm camera doesn’t have a focus ring and the pcb is darkbrown/black and works perfect over the RX/TX port like the AxisFlying 9.6 mm version.
