Add MSP support

Hi @UncleRus,

This would be a nice addition, and it looks like you've already made good progress. MSP is the preferred OSD protocol for us at dRonin because it is stable between releases, whereas UAVTalk is not. Let us know if you need any assistance, either on here, or on IRC (#dronin on Freenode).

Hi @tracernz !

MSP support will be added in week or two. But I personally prefer UAVTalk because of:

  • its implementation in latest MultiOSD works pretty stable with dRonin
  • user can easily control telemetry update rate by UAVObject settings in GCS
  • adding support for new UAVTalk versions is simple and fast
  • MSP provides less telemetry data than UAVTalk (e.g. no flight modes, no mag data source, etc.)

By the way, I'm thinking about GCS plugin for MultiOSD: firmware, settings, screens, fonts and so on.

Yes, MSP is a bit of a mess in parts, especially flight modes. GCS plugin is a nice idea. Would be good to discuss that more with you in future.
