How to enable WiFiLink 2 OSD? (Betaflight)

BetaFlight Firmware – MSP OSD
1. Change the osd setting for WiFiLink 2 (via user.ini)
Insert a microSD card to WiFiLink 2, and power on the unit. After powering on, there will be a user.ini file
generated in 15 to 20 seconds.
Access the microSD card via a computer or laptop, and open the user.ini file on computer, locate the setting for osd.

Edit it to msp, save the settings after editing, and insert the microSD card back to WiFiLink 2.

2. Configure the corresponding UART at the Ports
Connect WiFiLink 2 to flight controller, and please check the wire sequences, especially for a cross-connection on UART.
Power the flight controller and connect it to a computer or laptop, use BetaFlight for further configuration.
Locate the Ports, and turn on the corresponding UART for WiFiLink 2, set VTX (MSP+Displayport).
Save the settings and reboot.
Note: please update the version of Betaflight if there is no detailed setting available. It should be 4.4.1 or above.

3. After rebooting the flight controller, go to the OSD setting to enable the elements of OSD you need, please choose the format to be HD, and save the settings.

4. Re-power the flight controller and WiFiLink 2, there will be OSD displayed. The below picture is for reference.

If there is no OSD displayed after the above steps, please check if a cross-connection is done properly between WiFiLink 2 and flight
controller, make sure that the RX of FC is connected to TX of WiFiLink 2, while TX of FC is to RX of
the WiFiLink 2.
If there is text displayed like the picture below, the protocol setting in the user.ini of WiFiLink 2 isn’t changed to
msp, and please check Step 1 to try again.
