I have ordered the parts to build a unit today.
I currently use a PCAS device and have looked at FLARM but cost is prohibitive.
I hope this becomes widely available.
Is there anyway of knowing how many units are being constructed?
Could the members list be annotated to show members using unit and members who are constructing a unit?
