Product description
The ADSBee 1090U is an dual-band ADS-B receiver, receiving both 1090MHz Mode S and 978MHz UAT messages.
Highlights
- Mode S Packet Decoding (DF 4, 5, 11, 17)
- Reporting protocols (provided over USB and UART, * = available over WiFi)
- RAW (bit values from validated decoded packets)
- MAVLINK1
- MAVLINK2
- CSBee (custom ASCII protocol that provides details about each aircraft and overall decode statistics)
- GDL90 (Garmin binary protocol that reports details about each aircraft)*
- Mode S Beast (binary protocol used to feed online exchanges with raw packet data)*
- Operational modes (all of these modes can be used simultaneously)
- Serial receiver: Transmit raw packet data or aircraft information over USB or UART, for use with devices such as drone autopilots, computers ingesting data with pyserial, etc.
- WiFi Access Point: Hosts its own WiFi network that you can join with a phone, tablet, or computer to receive GDL90 aircraft information on Port 4000 (works with Foreflight and Avare).
