Simplest Solution to 2020 Compliance
The uAvionix skyBeacon is
the lowest-cost of ownership, wingtip ADS-B OUT 2020 compliant solution. With
the largest approved model list of any UAT ADS-B OUT solution, skyBeacon mounts
in under 10 minutes.
TSO'd solution for Certified Aircraft and Experimental Aircraft.
Works with Your Existing Mode C or S Transponder
skyBeacon works with any existing transponder. uAvionix's patented power
transcoder technology seamlessly communicates with your existing transponder,
any transponder, over your aircraft's electrical system.
Remain
Anonymous
Just because you are ADS-B equipped, doesn't mean you want to be
tracked. With skyBeacon's Anonymous Mode, your aircraft identification remains
hidden from the ADS-B OUT signal while squawking 1200. Anonymous Mode keeps the
skies safe while protecting your privacy.
Self-Contained WAAS GPS
A
built-in WAAS GPS provides skyBeacon with rule compliant position data for ADS-B
transmission. No additional wiring or external GPS antenna mounting is required.
LED Position and Strobe Light
Extremely efficient LED position and
anti-collision lighting complete the skyBeacon package.
Position
Lighting: TSO-C30c
Anti-Collision: TSO-C96a
Install in Minutes
Simply replace the aircraft position light, that's it! No airframe modifications
or additional antennas are required. Plus, it works with any Mode C or Mode S
transponder. skyBeacon installation uses the existing mounting location, breaker
and wiring, with 3 screws and 3 wires. The transponder data is provided via the
existing aircraft wiring system using the power transcoder.
Instant Setup and Configuration
Mechanically installing skyBeacon is the
first easy step. With uAvionix's mobile app, configuration is just as simple.
Our mobile application (available for both Apple iOS and Android) guides your
installer through setting the necessary values including the ICAO address,
emitter type, aircraft length, width and GPS offsets.
Wingtip Adapters
If your wingtip or lighting configuration is not supported by skyBeacon, you can
purchase a fairing adapter kit for various aircraft.
USA Use Only
The skyBeacon transmits on UAT (978MHz)
frequency which is only approved for use in the United States below FL180
(18,000′). For international travel or flight above FL180, a 1090ES transponder
is required.
2020 ADS-B Compliance?
Yes, the skyBeacon will meet the
2020 ADS-B requirements when paired with an operational Mode C or Mode S
transponder. skyBeacon meets or exceeds all required performance and
environmental standards for use in the national airspace. The certified
skyBeacon includes 5 separate TSO certifications.

Class B1S
WAAS GPS: TSO-C145d Class Beta I

- Pros:
- Review: 1963 Piper Colt. Purch Sky Beacon in Sept 2020. Mechanic installed in early Oct. Continually failed FAA PAPR test. uAvionix tech support walked us through the configuration but still failed. BTW, uAvionics helper, Drew, is fantastic. Nevertheless, it would not pass the PAPR. Now it is December and uAvionics replaced the Sky Beacon and the new one works, passed the PAPR first time. So, they stand behind their product but it has been a hassle plus added expense of A&P time. Bottom line is when it works the Sky Beacon is great but all said and done if I had taken the airplane to my avionics shop, had a Stratus ESG installed I would not have spent any more $ and I would not have lost use of the airplane during all the attempts to make the first one work.

Sky Beacon ADS__B almost perfect
- By Brent from Burkburnett TX USA on Friday, January 17, 2020
- Pros: Good price, easy install on domestic aircraft.
- Review: Well designed, normally an easy install except for non Whelen position lights. My aircraft had a European light and strobe that has only one metric screw and stud. I had to install 3 rivnuts and relocate the wire entry hole. I was also disappointed that the unit does not have a rear position led light. Overall a nice unit for the price and great smart phone interface.

Q: Will it work on Tripacer
A: Yes, the skyBeacon AML (Approved Model List) includes the Piper PA-20, PA-20S, PA-20-115, PA-20S-115, PA-20-135, and PA-20S-135.
But, even if it wasn''t, installing the skyBeacon on an aircraft not listed on the AML is approved by the FAA. A field approval is not required. Under the FAA Memo titled “Installation Approval for ADS-B OUT Systems,” the FAA explains that after an STC is achieved for ADS-B OUT equipment, additional installations can be accomplished on aircraft not listed under the AML STC by an A&P with Inspection Authorization (IA) so long as the installation does not require airframe modification.
