Hi Alf,

I also fly a vintage aircraft with no electrical system.

However I do have a Trig TT21 transponder with ADS-B out connection, Trig TY91 8.33 VHF radio and also a Horis 80 AHRS.

I power this equipment using a 12V 5.2AH Li-Ion battery which lasts at least 8 flying hours between re-charges.

So it is possible to be equipped with a transponders etc. without a full aircraft electrical system.

I am still undecided which way to go with having an electronic conspicuity receiver capability.

I like the SE2 but it can only detect ADS-B and FLARM. Also I would need to disable the SE2 Mode-S transmissions as I have a transponder.

PAW is on the list and will be interesting to see how the new MLAT capability works.

I think it is worth mentioning here that a Stratux Europe version has now been created:

Hi TouchTheSky,

I will test Stratux and have ordered a DIY Kit. I have downloaded the 1.5b2 IMG and will transfer it to the SD Card. Regarding the link in your post, how can I install the files from your link?

Thanks for your help,

Alf

Just to be sure, you should download: https://github.com/b3nn0/stratux/releases/download/v1.5b2-eu003/stratux-v1.5b2-eu003-a6721f94.img.zip

After burning the IMG to the SD card using e.g. Etcher:

• plug the SD card into the Stratux and connect power
• connect Wifi with "stratux"
• open via browser 192.168.10.1
• "Settings/Configuration": enter your own transponder ICAO code
• "Settings/Configuration": "GDL90 MSL Altitude" deactivate for SkyDemon

You don't have to install any additional files.
