Stratux ADS-B Dual Tuner Case

thingiverse

Here's another Stratux Raspberry Pi case designed for Dual Band ADS-B reception, equipped with AHRS/GPS and cooling fan provisions. This unique case works perfectly well with both new RaspberryPi 3 and NooElec NESDR Nano 2 SDRs. This clever design utilizes direct connection of the RTL-SDR receivers to the Raspberry Pi, eliminating all need for USB extension cords within the case. Both antennas are skillfully mounted inside the enclosure, making it an effortless operation in the cockpit. By doing so, we avoid cluttering the area with excessive wires except for a power cord. The compact size of 6.5" x 3.25" x 1.5" or 166mm x 84mm x 33mm will be easily visible in any airplane, thanks to these exact measurements. Moreover, the micro SD card slot can be accessed without opening the entire case while you view your Raspberry Pi's GPS, WI-FI and power activity lights via small holes. To further facilitate operations in a cramped cockpit, simply click here to acquire a Stratux ADS-B receiver set already ready for flight. **Updated:** On October 28th 2015 I posted new top and bottom STL files available on Thingiverse so please visit them here for download. You'll find an added air hole near the RY835AI GPS/AHRS chip after checking those downloads; a change designed specifically to accommodate a longer air tube leading away from both antenna mounts that are built onto each piece as well, giving them room. Additionally on September 23rd, I shared the files required for both new designs with all of you which includes moving that RY835AI part. They come pre-fitted perfectly with some extra space allocated to accommodate its height while not restricting its accessibility when viewed at an angle during initial setup. There's also improved airflow by rearranging air tubes so they don't interfere one another thus making things more organized visually inside the system without needing modifications later down line because every detail has already considered already in designing them beforehand. My goal was creating something easy enough even newbies could put together quickly; I wanted minimal setup work hence designed it this way from ground up focusing ease installation overall. With just simple electronics needed - power adapter Raspberry pi plus USB drives everything else pretty much comes out the box, ready-to-use straight away after purchase then following my online tutorials would allow everyone successfully get operational without getting bogged down trying things which could turn overwhelming so sticking to original design principles keeps process painless effortless everyone involved.
