I have no intention to implement that. Stratux is and will remain a companion device. The map in the web interfaces is intended for ground use, information and debugging/analysis. It is not intended to go flying with it. The GPS Position doesn't even update on that map.
It is an open source project. If you want something like that, feel free to implement it and pull request.

In this case, I think it is wise to put a disclaimer on the map page to prevent people mistake it as a replacement for the radar page!

Did Stratux EU021 break own-ship suppression? Since the update it does 'see' its own XPDR.

As far as I understand, Stratux DIY device is the best bang for your buck to get all of the traffic info from different sources. Is that correct? How it works with SkyDemon at this moment?

I works great, there are many folks out using this combination (including myself of course). Just recently an OGN transmission option has been introduced, the Wiki has been significantly updated as well:

1) and 2) are ok 3) this SDR has more functionality than required and it is quite huge, I would recommend a Nooelec, e.g. a nano 2+ or nano 3 4) the 1090 antenna is also quite long, for 1090 a small antenna is enough

Hi folks, I am catching up with this whole traffic topic (and the posts of this thread) and looking for some recent experiences. My primary goal would be to display both ADS-B and FLARM traffic in SkyDemon (the aircrafts I fly - mostly in Switzerland - have either power-flarm or TAS, but unfortunately without connectivity). Seems there are two good options out there, one being SkyEcho2 (cost of the device and the need for a yearly subscription to decode FLARM data makes it somewhat nah), other is Stratux (rather bulky and comes with home-made feeling). So my questions are: Why isn't this - very popular - option mentioned in the SkyDemon documentation? stratux.me doesn't show SkyDemon as a compatible EFB either. Is there still any pre-built ready-to-use version of Stratux available for my use-case? It seems the well-documented version from Crewdog Electronics comes with UAT radio only and there is no European version available. - Are you aware of any other disadvantages compared to SkyEcho2 what I might have missed?
- Is there any use of the AHRS module while only used with SkyDemon?
- How do you avoid traffic warnings for your own aircraft?
Thanks for any further hints you might have. Happy landings!

Adam, as one of the Stratux Europe contributors I am certainly happy to answer:

Adam, as one of the Stratux Europe contributors I am certainly happy to answer: Thanks a lot for the answer, I'll check the links. Actually, it's a pity that none of the sets have battery included, so in the end it will look like a homemade explosive 
It's pretty much off-topic here and might need to bring this conversation to the Slack channel, although could be useful for other SkyDemon users in the future. I'm thinking about keeping the box permanently in my pilot bag and making a suction mount for external antennas only. Any practical experience on power consumption (Pi3 should be better than Pi4 if my understanding is correct) and heat generation?
I'm not sure if I understand your answer to #5. I meant how to avoid my own aircraft's target (either from modeS or Flarm) being visible on the SkyDemon map. Sounds like simple filtering based on whatever parameters. Why do you need AT-1 and SkyView for that?
