Frequently aSKED questions
How do I claim my free one-year Stratus Insight subscription with my Stratus 4 purchase?
After purchasing your Stratus 4, download the Stratus Insight app from the Apple App Store, create an account, and register your Stratus 4 receiver. Your free one-year subscription will be automatically applied. Stratus Insight is available for iPhone and iPad and requires iOS 11.4 or later. Email [email protected] for further assistance
Does Stratus 4 work with my existing flight app?
Yes. Stratus 4 works with Stratus Insight, ForeFlight, Garmin Pilot, FlyQ, FltPlan Go, WingX, iFly GPS, and other apps that support the industry-standard GDL-90 protocol. To use Stratus 4 with apps other than Stratus Insight and Stratus Horizon Pro, enable Open ADS-B Mode in the Stratus Horizon Pro settings. Note that maximum functionality — including AHRS, synthetic vision, flight data recording, and pressure altitude — is available in Stratus Insight and Stratus Horizon Pro.
How does Stratus 4 differ from Stratus 3?
Stratus 4 introduces several new features not available on Stratus 3, including a full-color touchscreen display, Apple Find My integration, a G meter, and an updated rechargeable battery with tool-free replacement. Both receivers deliver subscription-free dual-band ADS-B weather and traffic, WAAS GPS, AHRS, and flight data recording. If you're upgrading from Stratus 3, your existing Stratus Insight subscription and flight history will carry over.
Can I dim the Stratus portable receiver LEDs for flying at night?
Yes, you can dim or brighten the LEDs using the LED Brightness slider on the Stratus Status page in ForeFlight Mobile or on the settings page in the Stratus Horizon Pro app.
Can I get traffic information from Stratus portable receivers?
Yes, Stratus 1 and 1S receive traffic on the 978 MHz (UAT) frequency. Stratus 2, 2S, 3, and 4 receive traffic on both the 978 MHz and 1090 MHz (ES) frequencies. The traffic you see on ForeFlight Mobile or on Stratus Insight is only ADS-B traffic. ADS-B traffic only includes the air-to-air traffic received directly from another aircraft and traffic rebroadcast to your aircraft from an ADS-B ground tower.
Do Stratus portable receivers work outside of the United States?
Stratus portable receivers cannot receive ADS-B weather information outside of the United States since it receives weather information from ground-based ADS-B towers broadcasting on UAT (978). UAT is not available outside of the United States. Additionally, some ADS-B transponders broadcast on the UAT frequency, so this information would not be available outside of the United States
