Raspberry pi 4 without dongle

FlightAware ADS-B Flight Tracking
1

Hello everyone, I have an orange flightaware and I bought a raspberry pi 4 and I would like to share the flightaware data with radarbox, flightradar, plane finder and others if you have it, I already downloaded the raspberry pi os, installed it on the sd card and now what do I I make? It has to be by virtual radar or there is another way. I would also like you to indicate other companies for me to share. Thanks

I assume you mean you have an orange FlightFeeder box?

FlightFeeders provide raw (Beast-format) data on port 30005, so you can point other software at the IP address of the FlightFeeder and port 30005.

Yes, orange flightaware box!
Is it possible for it to appear that it is being powered by a raspberry?

Thanks! Is there any other company that would be interesting to share, besides radarbox, flightradar and planefinder?

There are a few, I don’t have links to scripts to install but others may well supply links.

Suggestions;

To the best of my knowledge the last three are non profit organisations.

Lots. Here’s a list:

One more question, on the radarbox website it says that MLAT is inactive, I did everything right, I repeated the process and it does not activate. Another thing, the rbfeeder.ini file shows dump 978, is that right? Wouldn’t it be dump1090 since I’m in Brazil, or does it have nothing to do with it?
Thanks

This problem is with everyone. It has to do something with Radarbox mlat server. Dont worry about it. When they fix their servers, you will see mlat.

The dump978 setting is there but inactive. It becomes active only for those who install dump978-rb. Being in Brazil, you should choose option “no” for dump978-rb when it is presented during installation of rbfeeder.

I spoke with the people at radarbox and they gave me another installation method, I did their method and it still hadn’t worked, so I went to the rbfeeder.ini file and put the longitude and latitude from where I live, it didn’t work, so I went to the radarbox website and put the same latitude and longitude there and everything worked. Here is the code for those who need to reprogram the radarbox MLAT

sudo apt purge mlat-client
sudo apt update -y
sudo apt install -y git curl build-essential debhelper python-dev python3-dev
cd
git clone GitHub - mutability/mlat-client: Mode S multilateration client

cd mlat-client
sudo apt install -y dh-python
sudo dpkg-buildpackage -b -uc

cd
sudo dpkg -i mlat-client_*.deb

Credits to @abcd567 , who built the code!

Thanks

This code I have posted in Radarbox24 forum in July 2019
Radarbox24 Support since then replies to anyone who faces mlat problem by copy-pasting the code posted by me, and without giving any reference to my post. :wink:

https://forum.radarbox24.com/index.php?topic=101771.msg407051#msg407051

 

I have also built mlat-client packages using above code and uploaded on Github so that one can simply download it instead of building it. Easier.

Thank you, but my complaint was not against you, it was against Radarbox24 Support.
