Vista goes into Low Power Mode as soon as MSP-OSD is enabled.

Got a funny problem with my setup, so whenever I switch on the MSP-OSD in the Configurator on my Vista, it instantly (or within a few seconds) goes into low power mode. even thought Auto Temperature Control is set to OFF in the Googles menu. This also happens upon power up, within a few seconds of everything syncing up, the vista goes into LPM regardless of setting. This is a brand new Vista on 0606 and I had the same problem on the older, beaten to within an inch of it's life only transmitting at 5Mb/s unit it replaced.

Arming the quad allows it to go to full power and recording starts fine, but at our club we do a lot of crashing so don't want the Vista unit going into low power mode when disarming (this does happen) because then often we cannot turtle or get out of the trees, some of us also like to start recording before arming to sync up separate audio recordings.

Strangely, if I go into my googles menu and change Auto Temperature Control to ON, then turn it back to OFF again, the vista unit then respects this setting and will happily sit there until you get the Overheating please land message you usually get if you let them overheat.

I asked on the FPV.WTF discord and they said to ask here, is this a feature and if it is, can it be disabled, or are my crappy old v1 googles (that are stuck on 0600 firmware because every time I try to upgrade DJI Assistant says no firmware is available) causing the issue, if so do you recommend trying to upgrade them to 0606 or is this a known issue and I just need to toggle the Auto Temperature Control setting everytime I fly?

Also, any chance of getting the vista's mw output onto that list that has the temperature and voltage in on the osd? We're a bunch of idiots at our club and will often take off in 25mw mode and the first anybody knows that they're not in 700mw power is when you're power looping a big tree and loose video on the other side of it LOL.

Any help or pointers much appreciated, thanks.
