How do I configure alert settings in skyAlert?
Connect to skyAlert’s Wi-Fi SSID and navigate to 192.168.4.1/settings to adjust altitude/range alert zones, LED brightness, and more.
-
Can skyAlert connect to EFB apps on my tablet?
Yes. While skyAlert can stream traffic data to standard electronic flight bag (EFB) applications, it is built to integrate natively with DroneDAA on your iPhone or iPad.
Unlike a generic EFB, DroneDAA is specifically tailored for uncrewed aviation and serves as the ultimate companion app to your hardware. Beyond displaying live crewed aircraft traffic from your skyAlert receiver alongside FAA airspace layers and weather, it gives you complete tactical control. Directly from the app, you can configure proximity alerts with haptic and audio feedback, adjust traffic alarm ranges, sync alert thresholds, and manage your hardware settings on the fly.
DroneDAA can be accessed from your computer at: www.detectandavoid.com
DroneDAA is available on the Apple AppStore here.
