The X-Range ships with a 1090 MHz outdoor antenna (excellent 200 nm range) and all the other components required for set up. We ship our X-Range receivers to feeders who commit to meet certain requirements such as keeping the receiver powered on 24x7 etc. However, if you connect the flight-stick to a bigger 1090 MHz outdoor antenna with an SMA connector, you’ll get much better range (up to 200 nautical miles). If you use the little 10 cm antenna that comes packaged with the flight stick, your range will be limited to 30-40 nautical miles (~80 km). The major disadvantage of using the flight-stick is its antenna’s range. The flight stick can be used with a PC or Raspberry Pi. It retails at roughly $10 and requires almost no set up.
If you are unable to commit to keeping your X-Range receiver online 24/7 or are unable to meet the criteria to obtain a free receiver, the Radarbox Flight-Stick might be the best option for you. Merged: Contains data from all our available feeds organized and prioritized by relevance and accuracy.The criteria are extremely strict and are based on the last known flight parameters and on historical flight data. Estimated positions are calculated when the coverage of a specific aircraft is lost. ESTI: This data consists of accurately estimated flight positions based on several criteria.HFDL: These position reports come from HFDL (High-Frequency Data Link), a method by which air traffic controllers can communicate with pilots over a datalink system.SatCom ACARS: These position reports come from ACARS messages that are relayed by satellites and captured by our satellite dishes installed in several spots around the world.MLAT is a surveillance technique based on the measurement of the difference in distance to three stations at known locations by broadcast signals at known times. MLAT: This data results from a technique called multilateration.Atlantic and Pacific Oceans are included. Oceanic: Oceanic position reports for major trans-oceanic routes.ASD-I: Aircraft Situation Display to Industry data comes from the FAA radar systems and contains information on virtually all of the flights in the USA (including Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Bermuda and Guam) and Canada.ADS-B: Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast data contains real-time position information for all of the flights that are being detected by all of the AirNav RadarBox units that are currently online.The legend indicates the various data sources that Radarbox aggregates flight data from.

RadarBox has coverage only in areas where a feeder volunteer has installed one of our ADS-B receivers or shares data with a Raspberry Pi or Plane Plotter.
