stratux.me seems to be non-functional. I think this has been mentioned on here before. Maybe have it redirect to the github page? Is this the github page we should be using? https://github.com/cyoung/stratux
You're all correct, except there are not that many $30 SDRs out there. Also, most SDRs have clearly superior capabilities to the RTL-SDR, though those capabilities often are not required.
BTW, for simple AM/FM demodulation I cannot recommend enough the handy https://github.com/charlie-foxtrot/RTLSDR-Airband. For example most of LiveATC.net feeds run on it.
For those interested in a good writeup on the subject, this explains alot of why Air Travel is vulnerable:

Also, here's a link to the github:

Project mention: Remembering what flying was like fifty years ago | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-03-04I’m just here to plug my buddy John’s homebuilt/exerimentatal/open-source HUD, primarily intended for VFR use as an ADS-B traffic display.

Thank you u/aeharding !!! I use ppg.report regularly -- you can Sponsor/support Alexander and his hard work here: https://github.com/sponsors/aeharding
Project mention: Is windy.com a reliable tool for flight planning? | /r/MicrosoftFlightSim | 2023-05-27But, I can suggest AirportDB which shows the best runways at your airports based on winds.
I designed a basic parametric 3D printable NACA wing in my quest for a RC scale printed autonomous plane. It should work with most NACA airfoils, and can be printed without retractions in vase mode. There's still a lot to improve really (e.g. structures for the wing spar), but I'm pretty happy I managed to get it this far. I've designed multiple printable wings in Fusion360 before, but having them even remotely parametric (or even being able to change anything after it's done) is quite a pain. Not anymore! 😁 https://github.com/evertdespiegeleer/parametric-printable-wing
