 |
|
Hey Ya'll
I'm looking into ditching my Garmin 510 and using only ForeFlight with the Stratux for navigation. Currently I'm feeding my 406 ELT position data from the Garmin but want to retain that ability with the IPad/ForeFlight/Stratux set up.
Has anyone done this? Anyone know the exact pins on the Sratux to pull GPS position from to make the 406 ELT happy? I ordered the Stratux already built so I probably need to be spoon fed.......

GPS pucks are pretty cheap; often under $20. Why not just add a

dedicated GPS?

The Stratux is a wireless software package and does not offer "pins".
More specifically, some of the Rasp Pi modules do have USB ports.
You did not say which ELT you have or what the exact specs are it needs
for GPS input. Many need RS232 serial, a 50 year obsolete protocol.
That's not to say that you can't alter the software to use a USB
port to output GPS strings. But then you would need an ELT that
talks USB.
