Default FLARM and ADS-B and PCAS Traffic Display on PC

Hi,

A customer has a PowerFLARM Core and wants to use it to display nearby FLARM, ADS-B and PCAS traffic on a PC - on the ground. It is easy to connect the PowerFLARM Core to the PC's serial port, but I'm not aware of any software to display the traffic on a map. Any suggestions? Are any soaring clubs doing this?

The customer is currently using an Oudie 2. It works fine, but he'd prefer a much larger and higher-resolution monitor.

Best Regards,

It'd be less expensive and more productive to sell the PF Core (coincidentally I may need one) and build an OGN station. Believe the cost of the Raspberry Pi and all the bits is about $250. Then the customer's computer and everyone else's can display that OGN station.
A good start, the link below.
