Whats your farthest plane?

Not mine. I only have a dingy. :sob:

What is that connected to your flight aware? Wireless usb?

RavPower portable charger/battery pack.

Nice! Visited many places with your setup?

Mostly the top level of various parking garages in the area where I can get a 360°, unobstructed, view of the horizon .

Hi Chris,
Thanks for sharing the photos,atleast I got idea about using power bank with rp.How much back up you get after full charge?

@Obadiah3244
I see two black boxes.
A large one on the table, which is obviously a battery pack.
Another smaller one mounted on the wooden stick, to which ProStick is plugged in. What is this one?

Best I’ve seen 275 miles, with a solid average of 235… Which sounds all good, until you see that my antenna is mounted on my balcony of a 39th floor condo tower with nothing between me and the horizon.

Looks like I have a little more work to do :face_with_raised_eyebrow: LOL…
