Green??
I dont think so, the only green leds on flarms are those blinking for gps
transmission, power etc.
All informations are red, either fixed or blinking.
I dont think they were in "stealth" mode, it is tricky to use it and -
then - your PDA won't receive traffic informations.
Moreover, stealth mode is bypassable using an alternative "compatible"
device, on the market, so it is not a choice.

It looks like the pilot has put his FLARM in stealth mode. In this mode
only situations in which an impact is expected within the next 18 seconds
are annunciated as proximity warnings (alerts). The stealth mode is used
by some pilots to make their position data and lift and sink information
unavailable to other pilots, if this information is not necessary for
proximity warning.

The display used in this gilder annunciates proximity warnings (alerts) in
red, mere proximity information would be displayed in green.

the guy shooting the video has a Flarm on top of his panel, in some of
the scenes you can see the display lighting up and see the target
sailplanes. I thought this was pretty cool to see Flarm in action.

Is it just me? I am surprised the Flarm doesnt light up more.
Its like the pilot looks right and sees the other glider before the
Flarm lights up.
And that other guy is close!
