“uAvionix Intro’s pingRX Pro For UAS
pingRX Pro Weighs Less Than 8 Grams – - -
uAvionix has released pingRX Pro, a new Detect and Avoid (DAA) ADS-B Receiver for professional Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS). pingRX Pro detects private and commercial aircraft operating on 978MHz and 1090MHz. The received aircraft identity, position, and altitude are visualized on a moving map in real-time – - – -pingRX Pro is expected to be available in Q4 2020 for the retail price of $349.”
That seems to be a device which enables droves to avoid ADS-B OUT aircraft.
The autopilot coupling would be a “certification impossibility” for GA. In effect, an airliner-type “RA” but that one uses two Mode S boxes with mutual negotiation. This one does autonomous avoidance, which is fine until you get two of the same and they both do the same thing But maybe they have done that too. If so, how is the comms link implemented?
