A Group: Forum Members Posts: 3, Visits: 1	Hello, I work on Raspberry Pi and ADS-B receivers to feed FR24 and Radarvirtuel and yesterday I discovered the Stratux project. I tested it with Foreflight and could see my local traffics . But I'm flying in Europe and I love SD, is there a way to use Stratux signals with SD ? Or stratux's support can be added in addition of Flarm ? Regards, Antoine

T Group: Forum Members Posts: 151, Visits: 4.1K	+x Rdkraker - 10/5/2018 3:52:46 PM Have build a stratux receiver with dvbt stick and USB GPS dongle. Get location in sd, and traffic on stratux webpage. However no traffic in sd... Have set vertical limits for traffic to 40000ft however nothing shows. Any settings I need to change? Do I need to switch msl alt off in stratux? Or do I need a barometric input on de pi? And if so, since I don't need ahrs, is there an USB dongle for that? - in SD under Setup>Third-Party Devices> you should select SkyEcho, iLevil - leave the MSL switch off for SD - for ADS-B you don't need the AHRS/Baro module
