So the sd card has to stay plugged in the whole time correct? It's not like it downloads on there and then you take the card out?

Correct. The Rasberry Pi uses the SD card as a pseudo hard drive.

Thanks so much.
Another question if that's ok, I have foreflight, will the weather/traffic show up there or does stratux have it's own app?
Does stratux connect via bluetooth to the ipad?
Finally, I have a dual gps (the little red one) which works great and connects to the ipad with bluetooth, would that change?

Weather and traffic will show on Foreflight. Most folks plug a gps antenna into their stratux project so I can't answer your second question. If I understand your questions - you want weather and traffic from Stratux but GPS from a bluetooth device. I think it would be easier to just get a cheap USB powered GPS antenna for $15 for the stratux box but your method may work. Let us know!

Thanks for the feedback! The iPad I found out will connect by using an IP address. So it's not Bluetooth but actually an "internet connection" of sorts. Can't actually start going online in the air but the webpage "talks" to the Stratux that way.

Find out I can still use the dual gps and do not have to get the plug in gps you mentioned.

Wow! I just looked it up, that is amazing. Do you use foreflight or do you have to get special software for it?
If I plug it in, it will just automatically show up on foreflight with weather and traffic, no need to do anything else??

If you want to pay for FF. You can also check FltPlan Pro on all mobile devices. Works with ping and Stratux. Plus it's free.

Gotcha yeah I have FF already. I was interested in the message from ceepee about the iping thing he was talking about. If it really just plugs directly into the ipad I'll go that route. Way easier than having an extra box every flight.
