PowerFlarm Portable

Post by limaechoalpha »

Hello everyone!

I guess many of you have heard of the PowerFlarm Portable (which detects and displays FLARM, transponders and ADS-B traffic on an independant display).
I fly a Diamond DA40TDI and would like to buy a Power Flarm Portable. I am wondering if the device can, in any way, interfere with the FADEC or any other system on the aircraft.
Has anyone already experimented with it?

Thanks for your help!

Lea

Hi Lea
I do have a PowerFlarm on my DA40 since years. No interference to any avionics. In my opinion it’s a must in the European Airspace.
(see the latest SUST/SESE Report - collision of the C210/PA28 near Lommis).

see the Installation; https://youtu.be/_8PVu0_Hq6I

Thank you Thomas! Glad to hear that. The installation looks great, not blocking the view more than necessary.

Happy landings!
