Thanks for the initial information. So, I’m trying to buy an ultralight and the small airport where Im planing to hang my UL is under the 3rd ring of class B starting at 2500”. When you say to register the UL, is this about receiving an N number (N12345)? Do I have to change the category from UL to experimental? My last question is because my medical was denied and for experimental, it requires at least the sport license. The small airport is KONZ in Michigan under DTW Detroit.
It looks great but as you said its probably only for certain kinds of high altitude PPG pilots or those in congested areas, throw a bit of shrink wrap over it. If you dont have any proper shrink wrap if you can find a small product bag with "crinkly" plastic and a hair dryer will do the trick.
Great stuff and thanks. If you think about it, ultralights (powered and unpowered) are among the MOST regulated aircraft in the world, not the least regulated. For example, we can only operate in Class E and G airspace, we cannot operate at night, cannot carry passengers, may only fly for sport or recreation, cannot fly over congested cities, town, settlement, or open air assemblies of persons (at any altitude), must see and avoid and yield right of way to all other aircraft, etc. What other aircraft carry all these levels of restriction? Believe me we are highly regulated. Stating otherwise suggest to our opponents that perhaps additional regulation is in order.
skyecho is another potential and less expensive solution though it is not approved for use in USA that is you can't use them where ADSB is required however if you are just flying in class G then it should be okay. I am considering though not sure if it is easy to purchase in USA. Looks to be about 1/2 of cost of ping20 it appears.
@@vg23air I am hearing from tech folks at uvionix that they are aware of the demand for folks like us and something suitable might be available around oshkosh time.
In the United States, if it is an FAA part 103 compliant ultralight, it doesn't need to be registered. But, if you wanted to, I believe you would do it as you would any other aircraft
Thanks for posting the video. I have been considering dropping the money for this same solution for some time now to use on my PPG XC trips. Do you use a mobile navigation app to track aircraft near your area (GDL90 data) - like SkyDemon for example. If so, does it work well for you?
This video makes little sense, it starts by telling you how to get adsb in your 103, and the solution is to register your 103 out of 103 with an n number and a pilots license $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ just tell the FAA to allow EAA registration numbers for UL's that begin with E not N to be used in ADSB end of story.
