The Stratus 1S and 2S are not supported at this time because AFS (Appareo, ForeFlight, Sporty’s) added code to the firmware in those units that appears to serve no purpose other than make it very difficult for FlyQ EFB to connect to it. Similarly, the Stratus 1 and Stratus 2 are supported by FlyQ EFB but only if they have not loaded with firmware version 2.x. Please contact Sporty’s or Appareo if you would like to see them remove the blocking code and allow you to use the device you purchased with your choice of app.

Connecting an ADS-B System

For any Wi-Fi based ADS-B system (all systems except the Dual XGPS 170):

Turn on your ADS-B system.

 

Let it warm up for about a minute.

 Go to the Settings app on the iPad or iPhone.  Turn Airplane mode ON to disable other wireless services that might interfere with FlyQ EFB.  Turn only Wi-Fi ON . Leave all other wireless systems off.  Connect to the Wi-Fi Network that has your device’s name or manufacturer in it Recommendation next to the connection. That is not an error or a problem ; it’s the iPad/iPhone simply telling you that the ADS-B Wi-Fi connects only to the device, not to the Internet.  You should see FlyQ EFB notify you of a connection within one minute.  If you turn the ADS-B off, the green ADS-B status light should turn red within about 60 seconds. unless otherwise instructed by your ADS-B manufacturer. Note : The iPad/iPhone may show a small (i) symbol with the words Security
