I'm curious as to what collisions you are trying to avoid while on the ground.
Hank, have you ever seen these guy fly Condor ?
See ya, Dave
This will only work for traffic pattern, as currently flarm is limiting to 500m altitude range. I believe earlier on the range was not limited due to a bug, but in current beta version it is. Although 500m is plenty for collision avoidance, it is not enough for any other use such as buddy flying and monitoring from the ground. I asked them to make it a configurable option just like PCAS and ADS-B and they are considering it, but apparently it is not so simple.
