Add AHRS & Altitude Sensor to Stratux
Install attitude and altitude sensors for enhanced flight data
AHRS (Attitude and Heading Reference System) provides artificial horizon data to your EFB. Combined with a pressure altitude sensor, you get complete situational awareness.
Recommended Sensors
MPU-9250 / ICM-20948
9-axis IMU for AHRS (accelerometer, gyroscope, magnetometer)
BMP280 / BME280
Barometric pressure sensor for altitude
Installation
1
Connect sensors to Raspberry Pi I2C bus (GPIO 2/3)
2
Enable I2C in Stratux settings
3
Mount IMU level and aligned with aircraft nose
4
Calibrate AHRS through web interface
Benefits
- Artificial horizon on compatible EFB apps
- Accurate pressure altitude for traffic alerts
- G-meter and turn rate indication
