Seven out of five, ignore cranky reviewers below
Yeah you'll have to buy the Raspberry Pi 3 board separate, so what. It's still $150 less getting the DIY kit vs buying $400 pre-assembled. If you want to spend that much, get a Sentry from Sporty's/ForeFlight. I was, no exaggeration, running the Stratux 15 minutes from the time I got my box. It's all plug and play, takes very little time at all to assemble and operate. Fltplan Go is showing me airline traffic 70 miles away right now. On the ground you won't see much - mostly direct LOS traffic and no Wx. Get it in the air and the display comes alive with radar, targets, TAFs, METAR, PIREPs; everything a GA pilot needs (the towers broadcast up, mostly.) The other big advantage is service - should anything conk out, buy a new bit and swap the offending piece. And the Reddit gang at r/Stratux is always present to help if you get stuck.I added two extras to mine - first is a VK-162 GPS antenna puck and a USB pigtail, both to get more reliable GPS locks and to plug/unplug the antenna when not in use. The other is a 24k mAh 65w Anker brick for powering not only this unit, but also keeping my iPad charged.

Mine did not come with a Raspberry Pi just FYI.
Did not specify that there are major parts that are not included in order to function. This does not come with raspberry pi.

did not ship with suction cups
This device appears to be everything it is advertised to be, technically, however it didn't ship with the suction cups. It was, however, easy to build and a great value. I just need to find a mounting solution now...

Picture is misleading
In my tests on the ground, everything seems to be working well.Mainly reviewing because the picture is misleading. It did not come with the suction cup mount. Seems that you have to buy that separately. Not pictured is a battery pack that is required, which is also not included.

Not a device to trust, please use carefully
This is my second replacement, and I have the same issue, after hours working fine, but now I just turned on the device, and the AHRS sensor already not working, It's ok for hobbyists' use but not for professional use please be aware! save money and buy better.

Kit does not include Raspberry Pi
Kit did not come with the Raspberry Pi. What good is the kit without the motherboard?
