    It does work. It’s better than the cheap Chinese ones with no amp. This is no where near the performance of the flightaware pro plus for the same money

    This is much better than the other 2 sdr I have purchased. My range is so much better , I couldnt be happier. Just ordered 2 more, will use them with Flightradar24, flightaware and radarbox setups

    Should provide a similar result as the flightaware product. Its smaller and has less plastic in case. Use flexible cables on both ends to avoid breaking off connectors.

    I plugged this into a machine I hadnt been using for this purpose before. Within 5 minutes I had installed and was running dump1090 and with the web interface was able to see planes in real time. i didnt have an antenna (yet) so I just shoved a paperclip into the antenna port (i do not recommend this!) and was seeing weak-ish signals. Later on with a proper antenna, coverage expanded nicely. What a fun, and cheap way to get introduced to ADS-B tracking. It was cheaper than my last order of K-cups!

    Im pretty shocked. I get about the same performance as the FlightAware sticks and this thing is half the price. My range went from about 90 NM to 130 NM. A nice boost! If youre setting up an ADSB receiver or want to pep yours up I think this is a worthy purchase. I updated my review to add a picture of graphs from the last three months to show how much better the stick is compared to an SDR dongle.

    If you have a windows PC, you can be watching REAL TIME flight data with this little dongle, a small antenna, and a few minutes of your time. Ever wondered what airplane that is that’s flying over your house? Well, now you can find out - AND track it’s flight as long as it’s within range of the antenna.

    I bought this stick to replace a RTL-SDR dongle. I thought that the built-in filter would yield better performance, but this was not the case. Using it with a Pi Zero W running PiAware, there was a huge decrease in the number of flights seen (from around 1800 per day to only 200 or so). Maybe I got a bad unit or something, since it also runs hot. The RTL-SDR also gets hot, but at least it has a metal case to act as a heatsink. You can see in the attached picture when I was using the AirNav FlightStick versus the RTL-SDR dongle, and its like night and day.

    Dont expect any instructions on how to use this thing. The AirNav platform is no good, and costly. The free data uploader account is not free. I use with the Avare app.
