Finally, Affordable ADS-B In for the Cockpit

A pocket-sized, receive-only ADS-B receiver on the cutting-edge ESP32-P4. It pulls 1090 MHz aircraft traffic out of the air and streams it live to ForeFlight, Garmin Pilot, or your panel display over WiFi.

 

About the size of a thumb drive (≈3″ × 1″), passively cooled, no fan. Power it from an aircraft USB port or any USB battery bank and go fully portable. Use the built-in antenna or wire up a permanent external one.

 

Three Tiers

       Traffic (1090ES) — see aircraft around you, decoded and live.

   + Weather (978 UAT / FIS-B) — adds a second antenna, it auto-detects and pipes free in-flight weather to your EFB.

   + GPS ownship — adds a GPS module that sends your own live position to ForeFlight, so your aircraft shows on the map alongside the traffic.

   Hotplug & zero-config — roles assign themselves by port. Add a dongle mid-flight; traffic never drops.

 

All tiers include previous tier functionality, so the weather tier includes traffic, and the GPS tier also include weather and traffic.

 

Why ADSBin

   It’s the size of a thumb drive. The competition brags about being “no bigger than a deck of cards.” We’re a fraction of that — ≈3″ × 1″, pocketable, panel-clippable, basically invisible. Same job, a tenth the box.

   One-tenth the price. Sentry runs $399–$799. Stratux starts near $400. This one can be built in a weekend for a third of the price, with more functionality to boot.

   Traffic, weather, AND your own position — to ForeFlight or Garmin Pilot over WiFi, instantly. Power it up, connect, fly. The built-in WiFi broadcasts GDL90 straight to your tablet. Nothing to configure.

   It tiers itself. Plug in hardware and the firmware detects it and turns the feature on. One dongle = traffic. Two = traffic + weather. No reflashing, no settings, no guesswork.

   Yours to open, read, and modify. Source available. No black box, no locked features waiting behind a paywall. Build it, hack it, make it yours.

 

Receive-only. Non-certified. An advisory traffic-awareness aid for experimental aircraft and bench use — not a collision-avoidance system, not a substitute for see-and-avoid. It cannot transmit on 1090/978 MHz. By purchasing and or using this product, you agree to this disclaimer.
