The Pi Sky Tracker offers a range of features designed to enhance the aircraft tracking experience. After an initial setup using a PC or Mac, the kit can run autonomously, drawing minimal power while operating in any geographic location—provided the user has the appropriate power supply.
Automatic Logging and Flight Statistics
The core functionality of Pi Sky Tracker revolves around automatic logging of flights, which includes flight statistics such as altitude, position, and flight number. Users can tailor logging preferences to either capture all flights or restrict logging to those operating above a specific altitude.
