    The author made a video showing how I used a $20 ADS-B receiver to overlay air traffic on FPV video from my drone--in a web browser.  He has info on how to build one yourself via the source link.

    Cool. Might help us with regulation and commercial flying.

    Under 400 feet it's more of a gimmick, but I think it would be cool to see the data overlaid on the post flight data view screen.  It might be distracting seeing it overlaid live while flying.
