Broadcast my position
The Oudie 5 broadcasts its signal under the Fanet+/Flarm communication protocol. Consequently, every device that is Fanet+/Flarm supported is, therefore, able to pick up this signal. This means you cannot transmit your signal only to selected pilots – it is a software and hardware limitation from Flarm, unfortunately.
Turning Fanet+ and Flarm on/off
Fanet+/Flarm functionality can be set up via Menu > Settings > Next > Next > Next > Radar

. select ˝ Buddy˝ you would like to add
. click Add/Edit button at the bottom side of dialog
. Set up Buddy name
. press Add to buddy list and you´re done! 🙂
Later you can edit the Buddies via Menu > Settings > Next > Next > Next > Buddies
To add, edit or remove Buddies the devices requires a good GPS signal.
If your wish to the device to display only your buddies, set Show > Radar zoom to never:
