Upgrading to Win11 will continue security updates. Even after such upgrade, there are numerous problems with Windows ... my remaining use case for Windows was to run games. This is no longer necessary - let me show you how!

I ended up ordering one of these from Amazon and love it! The smoothness and print quality is top notch.
Have you considered offering STL files? I might want to reprint mine in PETG-CF for hot summer days. But also, I know that design theft is a real thing, so I can understand why you might not!

I did some PLA testing and the only failure mode is hot-car.
I've had a paddle in California sun on a cinder-block, 24/7 for a hot week. With free-air, I couldn't get it to reach temperatures leading to softening and deformation.
I also considered printing in white or wood-pla - no interest yet :)

I'm happy to special print one in PETG if you order via cwmouse.com Stripe link and leave a note requesting PETG. I don't have CF, but structurally, the design is already pretty beefy and CF won't make any/much difference in heat resistance. I'm all setup for PETG, but am not offering it by default.

Hi Adam! I'm glad you like it. I have considered offering kits, but getting the assembly process (and design) optimized for time and outcome (even for myself) was a process. I'm worried people would force things, fail and be unhappy with the end-result leaving bad reviews. ...

Underside of power panel to be directly attached to a battery.
This was a one off, with APP pigtails glued into the custom design panel and everything wired internally inside a small center-void. I used off-the-shelf volt-meter PCB and USB-charger PCB. This is the only picture I snapped with unit fully wired before being attached to the battery.

To install ADSB-out (in US) it needs to be FAA certified and installed by an aircraft mechanic. This means that the VERY cheapest ADSB-out will cost $2500 installed.
That is 50x more expensive than your RTL SDR rx suggestion.
Adsb is only a tool, just as airband radio and good procedures.

What bbs ansi telnet centric terminal do you recommend for linux?
I found gnome-terminal with ibm-vga9 font, TERM=ansi, 80x25 and ctrl-h on backspace working well for most BBS telnet connections and ansi intensive door games.

Got tired of jumping around to find and compare motorcycle info so i made this: PhilharmonicMoto.com
Pics, specs, size and ergonomics, make comparisons and filter by features to find bikes with the characteristics you want.
I play with bits of wire to try and get them to emit RF
