Notable Power Flarm saves - Is it 'worth it'?

That's a good question.

When I was playing with Stratux, I used a Nexus 7, but it wasn't very
good in daylight.Â* I understand the new Samsung Galaxy tablets are quite
good, however.Â* The Dell Streak 5 would be great, but its Android
operating system is too old to run one of the Avare programs.Â* There may
be other Androids with daylight readable screens but I haven't kept up
to date on them.Â* Maybe someone else could make a recommendation.

Oh, and you can use a RAM mount to hold an Android, like a Samsung
Galaxy 8.Â* It will run both Avare (the application which displays ADS-B
targets from Stratux) AND XCSoar, an open source (read FREE) tactical
glider computer/moving map.Â* You could flip between applications or, if
available on the tablet, run both on split screen.

Dan, what would be a panel-mounted sunlight-visible display (plug and play compatible, I'm not a computer expert) for something like the Stratux? I don't want an iphone screen on my knee. The panel displays sold for Flarm are cheap and look good, but I can't find out if they work with adsb-receivers like Stratux.



For a cheap ADS-B In solution in an experimental ship, look at
Stratux.Â* You can pick up a ready
to install system for around $250 or build it yourself with
parts from Amazon for under $100.Â* It's all open source software and
there's a parts list on stratux.me.
