Does the software subscription renew automatically?

It is bought a year at a time. What you are told at the point of payment is what happens; there is no silent renewal, and if it lapses the display tells you rather than going blank.

What happens to the player's licence if I sell it?

It goes with the machine. The licence is tied to the player, not to you, so the next owner plugs it in and it carries on.

Do I need a PC or any technical knowledge?

Not for the player: it arrives installed and pointed at your location, and you plug it into any screen with an HDMI input. The software-only option needs a Windows machine or a Raspberry Pi you provide.

Do I need my own aerial?

No. Without one the display reads a shared community feed over the internet. With one, the data comes straight off the air in real time, and we will supply a receiver free where your roof fills a gap in coverage.

What does the 99 pounds a year buy a commercial site?

Priority data and priority support: your displays served ahead of the queue, and a direct line to the person who wrote the software. A player at home carries its licence for life and gets neither.

Is anything charged when I pre-order?

Nothing. No card is taken and no contract is created. A pre-order holds your place in the queue, and you can cancel it with one click.

Pre-order for a site

Prices are subject to change. Nothing is charged and no card is taken.

Two different things, deliberately. Hardware is a purchase: a player carries its licence for life, installed before it ships, and that licence travels with the machine. Software on its own is a subscription, because that is renting the feed for a machine we did not supply. Keep a display more than about seven years and the player works out cheaper. A commercial display renews because the £99 buys priority data and priority support, which a home player does not get.

A receiver

Free, if your roof is somewhere the sky is not already heard.

Not a product and not for sale. We build a small number and place them where coverage is thin, because a receiver in central London adds almost nothing and the same box on a hill fills in a blank. It is yours to keep, it feeds your own display, and it feeds the network the rest of the product depends on.

How that works

The small print, in plain words

Things worth knowing before you pay anything.

Nothing is charged now

A pre-order takes no card and creates no contract. It holds your place in the queue, and we build in the order people pre-ordered. You can cancel with one click, which deletes the record.

These prices may move

They are what we expect to charge. Hardware costs what it costs, and we would rather adjust a published number than quietly ship something worse to defend it. You will be told the real price before you are asked to pay it.

If we stop trading

The licence cost comes off and the final build is published able to read whatever ADS-B source you point it at. Anything already on a wall keeps working. That is written into the terms, not just said here.
