ADS-B in Mission Planner - everywhere?

ADS-B traffic seems to be being piped into Mission Planner from ADS-B Exchange, this means I can try and see what impact a low altitude drone flight might have in busy airspace.
So off to look for conflict to the West of Heathrow. A simulated drone flying a corridor mapping mission along the M4 motorway. I flew at 1500'', if I had been lower nothing would have been even close.
Of course, not all aircraft have ADS-B but by 2020 a far greater number will.
The flying wing is a Zagi, the first popular wing, you can find one here zagi.com/ .
It seems almost historic now! Everyone had one, even me ;-)
No tuning had happened, the Zagi flying with out of the box settings in Ardupilot.

Nice!, how are you are superimposing the airplane animation inside mission planner @5:42. Can you please explain?

[@GaryMortimer]

Sorry just seen this, OBS Open Broadcaster Studio

Something I think might be worth noting: not certain how the rollout of ADS-B is working in the UK But here in the US, there are still a lot of aircraft without it. Mostly older aircraft without an electrical system, flying in Class G. In my experience, there is a large overlap between the group of aircraft not yet ADS-B equipped and the group of aircraft that frequently fly below 400 feet. As such, I don't think the assertion that "if I had been below 400 feet, I wouldn't have conflicted with any aircraft" is quite valid. There's a level of statistical bias there: looking only at ADS-B traffic ignores a specific group of aircraft that, in my experience, is your most likely culprit for sub-400' airspace conflicts. Again, it could be that this is not a factor in UK airspace. If so, feel free to completely ignore this comment.

May I ask what solution you are using in the US? FLARM? I am in the cheese state and am doing my best to comply with regulations. I have built a Stratux ADS-B (RX Only) but it seems like that may only be required if I have an internet connection.

Como haces para ver el UAV en la pantalla inferior izquierda del mission planner?

[@pavanshetty9117]

Hello, When I start the copter I can see few aircrafts detected by the ADS-B receiver and after 20 seconds they disappear and nothing is detected after that. When I restart the copter the aircrafts are back but again disappear. Any suggestion? What are the parameters you set? (Note: I have PING USB receiver as well I can see aircrafts on the virtual radar but not on mission planner after 20 seconds). Thanks

Humm, I don't have a Ping, it must be the IP address or are you talking about aircraft being seen on a receiver on the airframe itself?

[@vasanthrajvasantharaj]

yes he is what is the IP address you are using , are you running Cygwing64 and ASTERIX if yes can you share that video how to configure

[@spartan3299]

Houston Int, Houston Hobby, Ellington Field?

[@sUASNews]

I will have a look at it

[@FlyingWingsUK]

BAD AHRS hmmmm

Not such an issue in simualtions
