@abcd567 - Wow! You are lucky everything worked for you right out of the box. I tried the same distro that you’re using - Raspbian for Orange Pi PC but Wifi doesn’t work with my Edimax dongle. If that worked I’d be good to go. Everything else works - although I haven’t tried the dvb-sdr yet.
Most probably if I try a WiFi dongle, it wont work either. Also, I did get stuck with Piaware client, but Oliver’s prompt help rescued me. It is too early for me to form an opinion, lets wait and see few more days, and few more App installations. Anyway, This was my first OS on OPi. I am going to format the microSD card, and install another distro + dump1090+data feeders, and repeat the process to try several flavours of ice cream … oops distros of linux
I have given up trying to make this board useful for ads-b (or anything, really). Can’t get Wifi working. Finding a working distro is a crap shoot. Unless you want headaches, I’d recommend you stay away from this one and go with the Raspberry Pi. It just works.
**Please note that the DC input on this board is not micro USB port. It uses a 4.0 x 1.7mm dc barrel-socket. Both the AC/DC adaptor of Set 5 & USB Cable of Set 3 have a 4.0 x 1.7mm pin.
**
.
Let me be even more honest. I got so sick of screwing around with that thing that I walked away from computers long enough to clean my house. So there’s that.
Why dont you try Raspbian from orangepi.org site, like I have done? Chances are WiFi will work with it. I dont have a WiFI USB dongle, else I will try it and let you know.
Anyway I will soon format microSD card of Orange Pi, and will install the Piaware image from Flightaware. Will see what happens.
Happy experimenting
You will probably need to mess around in /boot to get that image working, as the piaware image is only set up with a bootloader for the RPi and it sounds like the orangepi wants something different.
I did not try it. I dont even know how to “use the working OPI uimage and script_bin with the Piaware build”.
First I burned OPi’s Raspbian image on microSD card, inserted it in OPi, powered up, and it worked ok. Then I formatted microSD card & burned Piaware image, inserted into OPi, powered up, and Opi did not power up.
