 |
|
I've purchased (and will be installing) a uAvionix Echo for my ADS-B receiver and transmitter. So, the Open Flight Solutions Flight Box that I have should find a happier home! I never used it in my plane, but to test it, I did take it with me on a Southwest Airlines flight to Arizona, and it performed flawlessly all the way using my Nexus 7 tablet with Avare installed as the EFB.
The Flight Box will work not just with Avare, but just about any EFB/navigation app available. See the list (they list 15 EFB apps there, but invite you to let them know if you use one not listed). They have much more info on their website here:

It can be portable or mounted and the only connection you need is a USB cable for power. It is practically brand new and never used in my plane. I just updated the software and firmware and to be sure it worked, started it up on my kitchen table. I was unable to receive any weather for two reasons, first it is a beautiful day! And second, being on the ground I shouldn't be able to receive weather on it anyway!
I took a screenshot of part of the database on the Flightbox. Note that it includes many more aircraft than it needs to display on the map. Again this was from my kitchen table!

A screenshot of the AVARE screen and the displayed traffic around me and KROC at that time. (Note that Avare allows one to select the icon for your own aircraft...hence the Long EZ sitting on top of my house!) I added the orange rings to highlight the aircraft and identifiers the Flight Box picked up this afternoon.

It sells for $239 new, so I think that $180 would be a fair price. If anyone is interested, please let me know. I would prefer payment by Paypal, as I can send it out immediately, but a check will be accepted. (Or cash, if you're in the Henrietta/Canandaigua NY areas!). Contact me either here or by PM if interested.
