uAvionix skyFYX-EXT All-In-One GPS Receiver and Antenna Overview:

The uAvionix SkyFYX-EXT is an all-in-one GPS receiver and antenna that serves as a 2020 ADS-B rule-compliant position source. It combines a high-precision WAAS GNSS sensor with an integrated RAIM processor and is resilient against jamming, spoofing and GPS range errors. SkyFYX-EXT meets the performance requirements of 14 CFR 91.227 and is the GPS position source companion for the uAvionix echoUAT ADS-B transceiver. The echoUAT itself has been discontinued by uAvionix, so SkyFYX-EXT is mainly a replacement or upgrade GPS for existing echoUAT installations.

For experimental and LSA aircraft.

The receiver and antenna share one housing, so installation is simple: mount SkyFYX-EXT on the outside of the aircraft or any surface with an unobstructed view of the sky, then run the power, ground and GPS data wires back to the echoUAT. There's no coax run, only stranded wire.

uAvionix SkyFYX-EXT features:

• WAAS GPS position source that meets 14 CFR 91.227
• Integrated RAIM processor for integrity protection
• Advanced jamming and spoofing detection
• Uses SBAS corrections and health messages to detect and correct satellite range errors
• Detects and excludes satellite pseudo-range step errors
• Applies SBAS fast and long-term corrections
• Performs in low-sensitivity or high-multipath GPS areas
• Connects directly to the echoUAT transceiver
• UTC timing output, including for UAT ADS-B medium synchronization

uAvionix advises that the SkyFYX GPS output should not be split and shared with an AV-30.
