With the new TRX-1000, AIR Avionics, the new cooperation between Garrecht Avionik and Butterfly Avionics of Germany introduces worlds smallest and most affordable traffic receiver based on ADS-B 1090 and intended for use in aircraft.
TRX-1000 interfaces with all FLARM® compatible display solutions, may be integrated into existing FLARM® installations and also displays traffic seamlessly on GARMIN® portable GPS devices such as the AERA® or 496/695 product lines.
Due to its small size and very low power consumption, TRX-1000 is very easy to install. As part of a FLARM® installation, AIR Traffic lite may also be permanently installed in powered aircraft with existing EASA minor change approvals for FLARM® devices and accessories.
TRX-1000 is part of the TRX Traffic product family by AIR Avionics and intended as an affordable and easy to install entry model. With our new trade-in program it is possible to give back TRX-1000 for a refund if upgrading to other TRX Traffic products with even more features.

This tiny little device simply connects between the flarm and the output screen. I use both a traditional display and an Oudie, with commercial jets high overhead the traditional display is not bothered by them however they show up on the Oudie screen with 30 km range plus. If the power traffic is in conflict the normal alarms will sound. It is very easy to install and the instructions are quite clear and easy to follow.
It uses about 200mA per hour so isn't a big drain on the battery. This is another cost effective way to increase your ability to see and avoid. I am very impressed and highly recommend the TRX-1000.
