    Yes - FLARM. Picked up via ground stations and then sent like other traffic via cellular.

    You won't see AvPlan EFB aircraft which don't have ADSB-out. Wouldn't it be great if that traffic data was shared across providers?
  3. Bevan
    Yes, when in range of one of the ground receivers and you have cellular coverage. If you want to see every ADSB aircraft guaranteed, then invest in a receiver in your aircraft.

    We're now feeding in ADSB traffic from a network of ground stations, plus glider traffic as well, into AvPlan EFB. You can also connect your own compatible ADSB receiver and get even more coverage as well. We won't even charge you extra to do so!
  5. Bevan
    Yes, setting a static IP will allow you to use the Pi and cellular at the same time.

    You probably want to turn your rasberry-pi into a Stratux : Stratux ADS-B | Stratux ADS-B - DIY/Low-cost Portable ADS-B The advantages are - Supported by a large community - Works with a wider range of hardware - Zero config connection to your EFB of choice (and it works with both AvPlan EFB and the other one)

    Only to ensure we know who is accessing the site (and to do data sharing etc in the future)

    There is a button to register - it is free.

    Hi Folks I can categorically state that we (as I run AvPlan EFB) have no issues and have never had an issue with sharing traffic data (google it and you will see statements from me to that effect in other forums). When I heard that OzRunways were recently saying that we didn't and they did want to share I again approached them. I have received no reply to that message in over 4 weeks. Bevan.

    AvPlan EFB supports the Dynon D2. It will use GPS position and AHRS data to drive the synthetic vision display.

    Both the Country Airstrip Guide and the AOPA Airfield Directory are regularly updated.

    Hi Yenn On the top bar of the map page you will see a lock icon - tap that and all your dreams come true!

    If you want a Windows flight planner - give Command Flight Planner a whirl (www.commandsoftware.com.au). Its now owned by the folks behind AvPlan EFB (me). Real soon now you can do all your planning on your windows machine then wirelessly push your plans to your iPad/iPhone or Android tablet (and THEN wirelessly push your plan to your panel (Dynon SkyView or Avidyne IFD). Pretty cool! There are no certified providers doing an EFB for Windows as yet (and AirNav isn't a certified provider). To be an EFB the screen size needs to be greater than 200mm, which rules out all windows phones to my knowledge. There are some smaller windows tablets out there, but you're spending just as much as an iPad or a decent Android tablet.

    In all fairness the $29 for dynon is just for 6 months. Our Dynon service (currently $99 per year) includes VFR and IFR maps, georeferenced airport diagrams and digital data for your skyview. Plus the wifi flight plan transfer when combined with AvPlan EFB on your iPad. We can certainly do a bundle deal for you and others who are interested.

    I see traffic via 3G and traffic via ADSB as complimentary services and not a one or the other thing. Traffic via 3G has the limitation that it only works within coverage, and only has a slow update rate. Traffic via ADSB updates around once per second and is line of sight (more reliable) so it a much better avoidance tool. You only see ADSB equipped aircraft however.. We mix in the data across the two sources so the ADSB targets take precedence over the same aircraft seen via a 3G cellular type service.

    I think its time you came across to the Dark Side. :-)

    We at AvPlan EFB don't need money - we're more than happy to share. All I get is crickets in response...
  18. Bevan
    I have one here - it is a tidy little unit. Seems to work well (we do most of our ADSB testing with AvPlan EFB with it)
  19. Bevan
    Another option might be the simulator at Avia Aircraft at Mooabbin - it has a G1000 in it. Cheaper than flying an aircraft around.
  20. Bevan
    Hi OzRunways does not have the Country Airstrip Guide, so it might be best to remove that from any price comparison. AvPlan EFB 7.1 has an NVFR LSALT calculator and AvPlan EFB have an obstacle database so will actually calculate the LSALT and not just show you a boundary. 7.1 should be out this week. (which also contains bunch of other goodies as well).
  21. Bevan
    Yes, I would go the Pro. Get the pencil too. You'll really want it soon :-)
  22. Bevan
    We would love to, just not sure when..
  23. Bevan
    Just other AvPlan EFB users at this stage.
  24. Bevan
    AvPlan EFB works with every commercial ADSB-in box EXCEPT the Stratus 2S (from Appareo) and the Garmin GDL39. It works with the Stratux and the other raspberry pi based systems as well.

    In terms of the physical size, choose the device which works in your aircraft and eyesight. Both are brilliant tools in the cockpit.
