BOM with ADS-B In

The BOM — Broadcasting Outer Module — is the only avionics suite that lives outside the aircraft. It is an aerodynamic pod that mounts under the wing, generates its own power from the airflow, and streams everything it measures to the tablets in the cockpit over WiFi. No wiring, no panel space, no draw on the aircraft's electrics; it switches itself on when you fly and off when you land.

What it measures

• Attitude — a full AHRS for a backup horizon on your EFB
• Airspeed — from its own pitot, matched to your V speeds
• Angle of attack — from the pod's own probe, the stall margin no tablet can compute without it
• WAAS GPS — position and track
• ADS-B In — dual-band 978 and 1090 MHz: traffic, and weather where the service exists
• Data recording — post-flight download of the whole flight

Why outside

The pitot, the AoA probe, the GPS antenna and the ADS-B antenna are all in clean air with nothing between them and the sky. A sensor box inside a cockpit is always negotiating with the airframe; the BOM never is.

A true backup

Self-powered and self-charging, independent of everything on the panel, and talking to up to five phones and tablets at once. When the panel goes dark, the BOM is still measuring and the tablet is still showing it.

Mounting

The standard bracket fits it under a wing; a universal strut mount and an inspection-panel mount are available for airframes where the underside is the wrong place. Pair it with an iris EFIS Pro display for a panel-mounted screen fed by the pod.

Also available without the ADS-B In receiver, upgradeable later.
