Unique wingtip-mounted design
The skyBeacon replaces your wingtip navigation light with a simple, compact solution to become ADS-B out compliant. Remove your old light and install the new skyBeacon in the same location. Three wires, three screws, and an easy setup app is all it takes for most installations. Works with any mode C transponder. Some planes (like newer Cessnas) may require a fairing. See below for more info.
Features:
978 UAT transmitter with a specially designed blade antenna
The design minimizes installation error and antenna placement issues. TSO-C154c Class B1S
Self-contained WAAS GPS
A built-in WAAS GPS provides compliant position data for ADS-B transmission. No additional wiring or external GPS antenna mounting is required.
Integrated altitude encoder
The integrated altitude encoder does not require connection to the aircraft static pressure system. The tailBeacon continuously calibrates the integrated altitude encoder for correspondence with the aircraft transponder’s altitude encoder.
LED Nav Light
LED Nav light provides the required red light for the wing tip. TSO-C30c. Bright LED strobe light for anti-collision. TSO-C96a.
Easy configuration
The tailBeacon mobile application allows installers to easily configure the ICAO address, emitter type, and more by accessing the aircraft registration information stored online. No cables required.
Works with your existing Mode C Transponder
TailBeacon works with your existing Mode C transponder. uAvionix’s patented power transcoder technology seamlessly communicates with your existing Mode C transponder, over your aircraft’s electrical system. tailBeacon and skyBeacon are the only UAT ADS-B Out devices on the market that replace your navlight.
Remain anonymous
Just because you are ADS-B equipped, doesn’t mean you want to be tracked. With tailBeacon’s Anonymous Mode, your aircraft identification remains hidden from the ADS-B Out signal while squawking 1200. Anonymous Mode keeps the skies safe while protecting your privacy.
Wingtip Adapters
If your wingtip or lighting configuration is not supported by skyBeacon, you can purchase a fairing adapter kit for various aircraft.
