Yes, I think there will be a demand for an upgrade service. When you say “Rosetta lookalike” what exactly does tha5 mean? How will the upgrade compare with the new Rosetta?
When you return your working and licensed Classic to us we will do an exchange. You will get all new parts except for the Pi 2B, wifi dongle, power cable and 869.5MHz antenna (The thick one).
This will have all the functionality of PilotAware Rosetta. I say its a Rosetta lookalike because the Rosetta has a Raspberry Pi3 computer with a built in WiFi the upgrade will not.
PLEASE DONT SEND ANYTHING TO US UNTIL WE HAVE THE PROCESS IN PLACE. WHEN WE ARE READY WE WILL LET YOU KNOW VIA THE WEBSITE, FORUM AND FACEBOOK, HOW MUCH IT WILL COST AND HOW THE PROCESS WILL WORK.
The eagle eyed engineers amongst you will notice that this upgrade will therefore have one less USB slot available for extension that a New Rosetta. This will not be a problem in normal use and the returned Rosetta will be hardware and software upgradable to weather when this is available. (At the expense of ModeC/S if using Sky Demon).
However if you want weather
and a wired connection for connection to a suitable Mode S transponder with extended squitter, or FLARM mouse or a NMEA to Dynon etc you will have to upgrade to RPi3 to get an extra port.
