uAvionix tailBeaconXÂ

The tailBeaconX is a Mode S Extended Squitter ADS-B transponder and WAAS GPS integrated into an LED rear-position light. It includes a certified SBAS GPS receiver and antenna; no additional GPS is required. It’s compatible with the Aireon ADS-B satellite network. The 20,000-hour-rated LED-position light draws less power than a traditional incandescent bulb, and it mounts in place of your existing rear-position light. Combining the tailBeaconX with the AV-20-E and AV-30-E upgrades your system with transponder control functionality to meet current and future mandates. 

Price: Starts at $2,499. Available at: www.aircraftspruce.com.
