v1.1.0
🧪 New feature: sudo droneaware test
Run a sanctioned 60-second test flight directly from your node to verify your antenna, adapter, and detection pipeline are all working — without polluting the live map for other users.
sudo droneaware update # get v1.1.0 first
sudo droneaware test # run the testWhat it does:
- Checks with the DroneAware server that you're within rate limits (3-minute cooldown, 5 per hour)
- Transmits a valid ASTM F3411-22a Remote ID beacon from your WiFi adapter tracing a small flight path around your node's coordinates
- Your own node captures it, decodes it, and forwards it to the server
- A test detection appears on your My Nodes page — visible only to you, filtered from the public live map
- Confirms local reception and reports result
sudo droneaware test --dry-run # check availability without transmittingAlso in this release:
