It works well, and is pretty much a put-it-together-and it-works kit.

The drawback is any display requires an android or iOS app (foreflight), neither of which is especially handy in a glider cockpit. I used foreflight, and it showed weather & 1090es/UAT traffic if there was a ground station in line of sight.

The other problem is I found it to be noisy enough to break squelch on my glider radio(s), especially handhelds. A bit of experimenting with a shielded (metal foil?) case may fix that.

But I'm done playing. I have a Pi2, two SDR radios for dual UAT/1090es, a USB hub and miscellaneous cables. Anyone want to buy it off me? $75 including shipping. I never did get a 3d printed case.

The FLARM displays have much better ADSB 1090es displays - but of course require buying the FLARM core.

As far as traffic coverage - I would not rely on UAT TIS-b without an ADSB-out aircraft very near. Otherwise you won't see anything but 1090es ADSB.

"EAA is working with the FAA to expand TIS-B availability to all aircraft, not just those equipped with ADS-B out."
Don't hold your breath on that one. Selective broadcast is still the plan.

For the money this looks like in interesting project for these
gloomy winter days. A second receiver (~$25) can be added for
1090ES.
