I just went to the iFly booth. You are correct Mark. My old friend either misinformed me or I misheard him. The Stratux is a small finished ready to go product. There is a small antenna you set on your dash or someplace to receive the ADSB incoming signal receiving weather and aircraft traffic and then sent wirelessly to the IFly 740 I think I heard him say.
I did also learn that the Adventure Pilot (iFly GPS) guys are connected with new rule 2020 compliant companies equipment that sends your info and receives other aircraft info and weather. Navworx about $ 1,700.00 Lynx by L3 which is a transponder as well I think. About $ 5,500.00 And Ranger by Freeflight $ ? I haven't spent time looking elsewhere yet but it seems like most receive only equipment (ADSB in) devices are around $250.00 As Mark Jones recently said Wow for $250 bucks Amazing. The technology is changing very rapidly. I'm sure most of you already know about these things but if not then here ya go.
