Just got PFLARM going with a nexus10 using butterfly to Wifi to it.
Seems good so far, Flown once for a short flight. Spotted a couple of gliders (green plane shape showing direction with height next to it +3.5 for example) also commercial into luton (ADS-B) presumably.
Yet to see any mode S or C displayed.
Of course it will be the non transponder plane that hits me out of the blue.
But so far impressed.
Using a LX avionics PFLARM core brick in a Europa. Just needed power to install.
I tried to find information on what to expect on the display but couldnt find any info.

yep some documentation would be useful. I found the option to turn on bearingless targets yesterday, that probably accounts for not seeing Mode C/S traffic.
Clarification of any order of start up would be useful too. If one hits Goflying does that automatically pick up PFLARM; does one have to be running before the other? I had problems picking up the wifi yesterday but it maybe that the bufferfly connect has stopped working.

I have it on the a 2013 nexus7 now. SD seems to be ok.

Oh and I can say, for the uniformed; other aircraft are shown as small green planes, pointing in the direction they are flying with a number next to them saying height difference, for example +2.5.
I presume conflicting traffic would show as a red plane.
