Area-51

Air Services don't care what an aircraft looks or performs like. They are there to provide a service to aviation via Air Traffic Control. If the aircraft has the necessary equipment to operate within a Controlled Area thats all that matters. If the PIC has the necessary endorsements to operate an aircraft within a Controlled Area that's all that matters. Consult the latest AIP for further information. Air Services may impose restrictions upon what type of aircraft are authorised to operate within specific Areas during certain periods or times. Consult the NOTAMS and ERSA for specific airfields and PRD's. Consult CASA Part91 for further information regarding Manual Of Standards - General Operating & Flight Rules, and other aircraft specific operating regulations.

Q1 - you will need to verify the following with the relevant CASA PART91 regulations to determine validity as to what "type" of aircraft can access Class D or C air space. Weight shift aircraft can enter Class D airspace providing they are equipped with a radio and the PIC holds the appropriate RPL/PPL endorsements. If the aircraft is equiped with a transponder it must activate and Squawk 3000. Airspeeds must be limited to maximum of 200kt within 4nm and below 2500'. Weight shift aircraft can enter Class C airspace providing the aircraft complies with the above Class D requirements, however a Mode-S with Altitude encoding, or ADS-B out is mandatory, Squawk 1200. VFR rules apply for both above Major City airports will not appreciate a trike holding up the big commercial planes, you may not get a clearance to land or ground taxi

Plastic aircraft can install inside the fuselage without affecting TX/RX gps/adsb. There is a GPS position offset option in Settings menu. The antenna orientation of the unit is important.

If you visit a graveyard, any graveyard, you will find so many great ideas... graveyards are overflowing with great ideas all over the world... its an unending problem, but somehow the ideas do find a place to be stored for later use....

Does this mean when it hits a hangar it will now get through to the other side and keep flying? 🤷🏽‍♂️🤔✈️

Anyone using a Stratus with AvTraffic?

Yes, thats the info required; thanks 👍

I would like to see more stories about Fly-Ins and what hobby plane builders have and can make on the kitchen bench and take with them for the cake and scone judging competitions. 😐

Mr Google says It could be an MCX or SMB style plug 🤷🏼‍♂️🕵🏼‍♀️

Agree... "just fly the plane" 👍

Read through that earlier; no specs provided; thanks 👍

Morse chain, hydraulic tensioner; backlash vibration and noise problems gone away...

Question for forum brains trust... Which antenna connector plug is used for the Stratus-3 adsb receiver? Looks like both are some kind of push fit style...

That is the assumption flying around the entire rotax community... Another assumption is the one regarding violent power pulses from the little sewing machine motor revving its guts out while producing output to the gearbox; hence gearbox dog gear function... Morse chain would be the better choice for this unit... Easier to just pay money, service machine, pay money, fix machine...
