This guide details how to set up a Raspberry Pi with a FlightAware Pro Stick to track airplane locations up to 400km away, receiving ADS-B data and accessing FlightAware's features.
ADSB.im provides easy‑to‑install feeder images for tracking aircraft, ships, weather balloons and more using single‑board computers, SDR dongles and antennas. The project supports ADS‑B, AIS, Sonde and ACARS/VDL2/HFDL data, offering web UI setup, aggregator integration and open‑source tools.
Python ATAC-style green screen ADSB decoder and display.
Aircraft radar display with retro styling. Visualises real-time aircraft positions and metadata from a local tar1090 server, with a retro interface.

Using a sine to binary 16 bit number generator I programmed those numbers into a pair of 2716 eproms to get the 16 bit wide sine number 'lookup table' or in this case 'conversion table'. It works incredibly well and my sine/cosine generator drives a large X/Y C.R.T. P.P.I. (Plan Position Indicator 'think radar'). The display has 64K of pixels and the memory storage has the feature of OR'ing old data with new data that will leave a trail behind any moving object. Best wishes on your project.
