Hi there,
I recently tried to use SafeSky together with my new USB-C powered Starlink Mini Satcom aboard my aircraft as I find a cell link sometimes difficult and unreliable. It works (There are even already suction mounts for the Starlink Mini available). Now I would love to go one step further:
iPad + SafeSky + SkyEcho + Skydemon all within my single Starlink WiFi (w/o a cell connection). Has anybody got this to work? It looks like the SkyEcho is only capable to span it‘s own WiFi network and unable to join a different one.
Any ideas?

Just received a response from uAvionix. Its confirmed. The SkyEcho has no option to join a 3rd party WiFi. So it looks like my dream setup won‘t work. With an iPad the only option is to get SkyEcho traffic via its own WiFi plus SafeSky via cell (if you have coverage). What a pity.
I have heard that Starlink dosent work well under high speed travel…
Starlink Mini together with Mini Roam tariff plan is certified for up to about 400km/h / 210kt. You won‘t get the 170 Mbit downstream I‘m archiving when I‘m well aligned at my residential address, but 25-40Mbit down is a realistic rate that I have seen at ~120kt.
