Yes, we'll also have the ADS600-B for certified aircraft on our store as well. I just finished building the shop items and will take them live shortly. I know NavWorx is backlogged and it will be a few weeks before they start shipping.

The iFly App and devices will actually get the GPS signal from the ADS-B feed directly from the ADS-600-B. No need to have a NavWorx and SkyRadar in the same plane. The ADS600-B would be your Out/In solution in one. I've tested this and the NavWorx gets a rock solid GPS signal. It has a WAAS approved receiver inside the box, it will just need an external GPS antenna mounted.

If you get the NavWorx ADS600-B, you could get rid of your SkyRadar alltogether.

Shane,

Does the NavWorx ADS600B send the GPS info through WIFI to the iFly?

Also what other information is sent to the iFly from the NavWorx box? Is it all of the ADS-B in stuff? ie weather, traffic, notams, TFR's, METARS, TAF's, winds aloft, etc...?

I just ordered a ADS600B a couple days ago.

Thanks,
Mike

Yes, we get the GPS location data from the NavWorx regardless, via wifi and/or the serial wired connection. It's packaged with the ADS-B data stream. The NavWorx send the complete ADS-B In "GDL90" data stream from the NavWorx, weather and traffic. The Weather/Flight Info (NEXRAD, TAFs, Winds aloft, Pireps, etc) is the Fis-B and the traffic is Tis-B data stream. Hope this helps.

Whoops, just posted to the General Discussion Forum page before I noticed this thread. I just completed the install of the Navworx in my 182, working to finish the Annual before I can flight test it.

Today I programmed the Navworx ADS-600B and got it up and running. I set up my iFly 720 to it's Wi-Fi network. I cannot seem to get the iFly to recognize the Navworx. I went into the menu/ Connected Devices/ Wi-Fi devices button, and selected Navworx from the pull down menu, but no devices show up. I set up the Navworx to generate simulated traffic, but the iFly is acting like there is no ADS-B connected. I reset and restarted the Navworx and iFly several times trying to trouble shoot. Any thoughts? Thanks
