I flew with the new 2.4 software twice this week and can verify that you can indeed move the traffic/weather data out to the other serial port and run it at 115200. The config app was on Android Monday evening so I got Ryan to send the new software to me and flew on Tuesday in between storms rolling through the area and the radar, traffic, and metars all showed up on my GRT HX EFIS. The radar really showed the difference in serial speed with good updates as the storms moved through our area. Today, when the weather is much better, I went for another flight to verify and it works! The config app is now available to run on an iPad also.

The ADSB out continues to be solid with good ADSB Performance reports.

This is a good solution if you have ADSB+ available from your panel mounted Garmin or Avidyne GPS. OR you can buy the GRT GPS.
