### Basic setup summary
102102
After basic setup you will get cheapest modern digital FPV system, but you`ll not see OSD, to setup OSD you need to read [advanced setup article](/use-cases/fpv/advanced-setup/). If you want to read instruction from manufacturer, please read [this](https://store-m8o52p.mybigcommerce.com/product_images/img_runcam_wifilink2/wifilink2_manual-en.pdf).

### How to diagnose a failed flash
106+
This info was gathered from the RunCam Support on 06/2025:
107+
108+

To determine if Uboot is still accessible, the current of the Wifilink2 should be measured and compared to given values:
110+
This can be achieved by a regulated power supply and/or a multimeter.
111+
Power should be applied via the 6pin FC connector
112+
113+
| Case | Voltage | Amps | Power | Status|
114+
|:------|---------|------|--------|--------|
115+
|1|13.5 V| 0.182 A| 2.5 W| Uboot still accessible <br>This suggests the firmware flash failed, but U-Boot is still present. Firmware flash error, can be fixed with UART flashing.|
116+
|2|13.5 V| <=0.144 A| <= 1.9 W| Uboot missing/unavailable. Need full reflash using chip programmer.|
