General Discussion / iPhone 6s not working?

« on: December 02, 2015, 10:52:11 pm »

Hi I have an IPhone 5 which works fine. However a friend has a 6s and is running software version 9.1.

I have found it was not working with the 6s and have upgraded to the latest PilotAware version in case this was a known issue.

To confirm issue
Both phones connect to wi-fi hotspot
PilotAware App on both show as connected
Settings on Sky Demon identical - use Flarm selected.
My phone finds the Gps source and works - the 6s fails to get the information to connect to the device.

Anyone able to give some help on this as I cannot think what else to do at this stage.

General Discussion / Garmin GLO Success

« on: October 29, 2015, 09:31:13 pm »

Hi Folks - After changing the Raspberry Pi2 for the right version my device seemed to work well but I could only test on the Iphone at home.

Went to the airfield today with a friend to try out the new toy and see how it worked when flying in formation.

The Garmin Glo does work perfectly with the PA and it was very accurate when we were both on the runway - very impressive.

In the air it was flawless with the lead aircraft exactly where the Sky Demon placed it - will be very useful for formation flights where losing sight of the lead aircraft will no longer be a cause to stress.   

Images attached shows only one change - I missed putting my registration into the interface for PA. The red is picking up my aircraft. When the lead aircraft got close that went red in Sky Demon as well. I have sorted that and hopefully all will be perfect for the week-end.  Thank you Lee for some great work.

General Discussion / Raspberry pi 2 - not working

Hi built an ADS-B receiver but bought a new version Raspberry pi 2. Does not work and I have now found a thread where Lee confirms this.

I have ordered the old version now. Thought I would post to save someone else making this mistake.
