# RB-Avionics
The RB is the Open-source Aviation instruments suite, the models are divided by CPU/Features. RB-02 will run in ESP32 (Arduino).
- RB-01 -> Display with Synthetic vision, Autopilot and ADSB
- RB-02 -> Display with SixPack (this repo)
- RB-03 -> Display with Autopilot, ADSB, Radio, Flight Computer
- RB-04 -> Display with EMS: Engine monitoring system
- RB-05 -> Display with Stratux BLE Traffic (this repo)
## Community
The RB Avionics is a complete avionics project which is supported by a huge community worldwide, read the Wiki and if you need support join the Discord channel.
## How to
We strongly suggest to install binaries, that are built from building-machine which enrich and check the output.
Anyway if you are brave enough and you are well trained, you can built it yourself by following this procedure:
- https://github.com/xiaprojects/rb-esp/wiki/Customisations

4. Attitude indicator GPS Assisted
5. Advanced Attitude Indicator
6. Altimeter with QNH settings
7. Altimeter digital with GPS Altimeter comparation
8. Slip & Turn with degree indicator
9. Gyro based on Gyroscope assisted with GPS Track
10. GPS Map based on BMP Tiles, you can load your map MapBox in the SDCard
11. Variometer
12. G-Meter with Max-Negative stored
13. Timers: up to 3 timers with GPS UTC Clock
14. Checklist loaded from SDCard
