I have a couple of questions.
I have tried to read many of the threads on stratux. It is confusing where things are at so can someone update me via these questions?
As I understand it, stratux only receives IN traffic that has an FAA certified ADS-B out system, so you can't see all the people flying around with smaller ADS-B IN systems (stratux, Stratus, Garmin, etc). Is that correct?
If that is correct, why don't people leave the FAA out of it, and just create these systems that ping each other? Seems simple enough.
Finally, I am using Fltplan GO. I am using my iPhone tethered to my iPad for the GPS signal. It seems to work pretty well on the ground (I haven't tried it in the air). But assuming it does work in the air, tethering requires the wifi signal on the iPad. Does anyone know a way I could use the Stratux and my iPhone (for the GPS)?
