A friend has received his ECHO unit with added GPS. 

This thing is tiny and weighs about 20 grams.

I have ordered the ECHO ADSB with the separate GPS unit at $1449 + $20 shipping.

No hard wire to Transponder required. I reads what is being broadcast from the xpndr and uses it.. 

Set up can be done from phone or tablet Androis or Apple type

Still has anonymous mode in VFR.

Good manual

For Experimental Aircraft. TSO unit to appear soon.

It comes with ECHO tranceiver. Receives 978 and 1090

Wiring harness

SMA to BNC lead

UAT (978) antenna

SKYFYX GPS receiver

Remote Mount GPS antenna

I'll file a report when I get it set up. Looks like about 30 minutes to install

It is supposed to work with IFLY but I don't see that in the current WiFi source selection so I assume I have to select AUTO DETECT

So far with the useless Navworx and this unit I will have about $3K involved, but I won't fly without ADSB.
