Hobby King Came up with a reasonably priced 'Mating' of "Made for Each Other"  Naze32 FC and Minim OSD.

This is exactly what I was looking for. With lots of real space free in even 10DOF "Full" Naze32  due to further miniaturization of Gyro/Accel Chips, Baro and SMD Caps, where was always the space for packing in the "Micro Minim" OSD with the tiny Maxim and Atmega Chips.

So here we are. Not elegant (with its own small nicks) BrainFPV FC, still a good iteration before we get a fully matured prduct:

http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__84790__Illuminati_32_Flight_Controller_with_OSD.html

What I still like to see :

1. There is only one ADC pin from OSD - Power. One would definitely miss RSSI, if not Current/Second Batt.
2. People hardly use Non PPM/Sbus Rx these days. So why to waste Input Pins and more practical alignment in 4-6 PWM  pins ? Have the 1.5mm Servo headers Input Pins aligned for 3- pin for PPM-Vcc-GND , and VCC-Gnd-Tx-Rx pins for GPS.
3. Do away with messy 3x6 headers for ESC out. Since people barely use ESC with BEC. , its better to have a Single line 6 pin connector for ESC connector . People can tuck the Gnd wire 2 cm before the PWM Wire and insert the PWM wire from 4-6 ESC into a 1.5mmm pitch housing like servos. Much cleaner
4. the Micro Molex connectors (except may be for GPS) for Servos etc in FC like BrainFPV is logistic problem. better to use standard 1.5mm Pitch JST-XH connectors like ones used in LiPo Balance Plug. they are easily available for making custom Harness

Hobby King has banned me from posting product discussion and their forum for speaking truth about some of their Patsy items. So I had no other choice to raise my opinion here.
