I have FltplanGo, and there is the option to add a custom ADS-B. I just dont
know what the "port" would be. How did you get it configured on the WingX?
Thx

It is very easy. I gathered the parts together and assembled it inside
a 3D printed case during one of our EAA meetings.
I had a chance to fly with it a couple of weeks ago, and the
iPad/Stratux/WingX combination saw the same ADS-B traffic as the
SkyRadar/GRT-HX combination.
There is a beginners guide here:

The Stratux creates a private wireless network. On the iPad, all you
have to do is go to the wireless settings and join the "stratux"
wireless network. WingX then sees the ADS-B receiver and "just works".

Hi
I am just starting my annual inspection and have a couple of questions related
to wheel servicing. There are:
1. Does anyone have a simple / safe / effective means for lifting and supporting
a wing while a wheel is removed. I have a motorcycle jack that I have used under
the fuse but am wondering if there is something better.
2. How often should tires be swapped from side to side
Cheers
Les

Depends on the type of aircraft. You can use a padded sawhorse if it is
tall enough and you have helper to move it in place. Or most wing jacks
work fine when you replace tie down eye with a round headed carriage
bolt for the jack point.
To get even wear you would have to reverse the tire on the wheel.
Swapping wheels side for side will not do anything.

I have jacks that use a hard point in the wing tie down hole. They use an inexpensive
bottle jack from harbor freight.
I think it really depends on how much you are flying. I swapped mine when I
was around 100 tach hours. They didn't really show any wear, but I swapped
them anyways.

I'm using a couple of work horses that are adjustable under the wings and
they have help well.
The tires- look at the outside (as the rest doesnt get much wear, once the
tread starts to disappear, its time to flip (as in outside becomes inside of
wheel) I just bought replacement tires as the originals are now reaching the
end of the tread life. The center of the tires look pretty darn new- darn
it!!
