The most impressive view of the Maldives to a pilot isn't of the resort island beaches, it's the 360 degree views in the control tower of all of Ibrahim Nasir International Airport, Malé and surrounding islands.

How to change lat long

$

Just installed the feeder on my RPI2, during configuration i entered the longitude as 122.066 instead of -122.066 (so it thinks i am somewhere in china). I can't find this setting in the config file to change it. Does anybody know how to change this data? Rerunning the config tells me I already have a feed setup.

Is this perhaps stored in the FR24 servers instead of the config files on my RPI2?

GNS5890 & Raspberry PI

$

Hi,

as I wanted to start feeding with an GNS 5890 on an Raspberry, I found some Manuals here, but they didn't succeed.
After hours I got it now running, and I want to share the solution here, in case someone needs it. :-)

I got the Manual with ADSBox and and modified fr24feed, didn't work.
Now the current fr24feed works.

My mistake was, the GNS Firmware was at 2.9, while the actual is 4.0
So first of all, update the Stick to the up2date firmware, you get them on the manufactures homepage.
(It's my first post here, so I can't post any links ;) )
Install the fr24feed package and plug in the updated GNS 5890 to ya pi.

See, if it is recognized

Code:

sudo lsusb
You should find a line including
Code:

ID 04d8:f8e8 Microchip Technology, Inc.
Now add the module for the stick
Code:

sudo modprobe usbserial vendor=0x04D8 product=0xF8E8
(You can add the line
Code:

modprobe usbserial vendor=0x04D8 product=0xF8E8
to the rc.local file in the etc folder, right before exit 0, so it will work on startup.
You should have now
Code:

/dev/ttyUSB0
, so we can start configuring the feeder now.

Choose the following settings during the setup process
4 - AVR Compatible (DVBT over network, etc)
2 - USB directly to this computer
/dev/ttyUSB0 (case sensitive)
2 - 115200 | microADSB

This is how it worked for me. HTH

Raspberry Pi problems

Hi,

Been trying to set up a new Raspberry Pi with FR24Feed.

Not sure where I'm going wrong, but after completion of setup and checking status I keep getting the following;

pi@raspberrypi:~$ service fr24feed status
● fr24feed.service - LSB: Flightradar24 Decoder & Feeder
Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/fr24feed)
Active: active (running) since Fri 2015-10-09 11:20:31 BST; 14s ago

Don't think I'm feeding any info.

any thoughts?

Many thanks

Background Options

$

Hello to the Forum! First Post!

I just completed registration for FlightRadar24 Premium.

Question 1) Are there any options for the "background" in Radar View? As an example, the "background" in the Free Version resembles a quality geo-map. Is it possible to import that "background" from Free into Premium?

Question 2) At 75 years with bad eyes, it is very difficult for me to identify an Airport in Radar View Premium. No matter how far I zoom in, the tiny font never changes. It is basically invisible to me. Of course, this problem would disappear if there was a "positive" answer to Question 1.

Thanks!

So I use FR24 frequently to track certain airlines, all the sudden since the 7/8th half of this airlines tail # no longer provide playback and before they were working fine, any ideas? This is happen for all flights with out a DEST or Departure it used to show the track now it's not, yet this all appear on the radar? Ideas?

Tails
N919CA
N952CA
N567CA
N176CA
N738MA
N739MA

Basically any aircraft without a Arr or Dest, it used to the show track also for all without those.

Tracking on FlightRadar24 - Lacking over Canada

$
0

Why is it that the free web application on Google Chrome, cannot always track a flight over Canadian airspace?

In the alternative FlightAware site, the plane is 'visible' for several hours, before it can be viewed in the FR24 site...

The specific flight I am tracking is today's ELY5/LY5 (4X-ECD). It is viewed in FA from about 10:39AM (local Israel) through the Edmonton (Alberta Canada) Center, and later through FlightAware ADS-B.
In the FR24 site it is still just a broken line showing its planned route, and it's already 1:43PM here!

__________________________________________________ ________
Correction: This occurs when I search for the flight to track...

If I can locate the flight in the map and click it, it does display both the proper details and the route it flew, but still only after hours...

SBS-1 via USB on W10, FR24 Feed error - authentication failed, please help

$

Hi all,

Any help gratefully received as I'm a bit stuck with this - I have tried googling plus reading through relevant looking threads in this forum, without success.

I am trying to feed from my SBS1 connected to my W10 PC via USB.

Basestation is working fine, as is PP but I cannot seem to figure out why I cannot get the fr24feed to work correctly - it was working fine in the previous version, which expired end of last month.

During the initial config stage, I am not sure what I should be putting when prompted for RAW data feed, Basestation datafeed and SBS/Basestation RAW data feed - I have tried various combinations of yes/no but this may or may not be connected with the authentication errors, below. I was originally thrown by the option to MLAT, to which I was answering yes, then not understanding why DVB-T was the only feeder device.....I now put no to the MLAT question.
