Hi,
we have the Air Connect Interface to send Traffic from Powerflarm to skydemon via WLAN.
I need a Hardware connected via WLAN and RS232 to Skydemon to steer my Autopilot.

Every old Handheld GPS (e.g Garmin Pilot III from 1997) can send this signals from the progammed track to my Autopilot. (TruTrak of Trio)

Any change to realize this Hardward and bind it to skydemon ?
Achim

This seems to be a growing market in the world of uncertified aircraft and I'd love to be able to utilise Skydemon to drive a system like this.

Freedom does not always breed the best for those struggling to obey the limits of their own capability anyways ...

I um undecided. Yes, for emergency reasons I added full waypoint navigation and serial out autopilot steering to my Stratux, wired the serial and got a big red physical button labelled "Emergency only" to change source from certified GPS to Stratux. BUT - I still observe the lack of education, training, self-awareness and SOP of fellow pilots in the uncertified world, which prohibits me to make it available to the public. Adding the few steering commands to the NMEA-out stream is indeed easy, as the digital autopilots are already prepared to take much of the calculation needs. I wonder how many Experimental in the US already fly by home-built solutions?
