Compatibility

Stratus Insight connects to a Stratus receiver using a WiFi signal, and requires a Stratus Audio Cable to enable the ATC Radio Transcription and Playback feature. The cable connects the iPhone/iPad to your headset and radio.

Please refer to the information below regarding iOS device compatibility, and if you have a question about compatibility with your aircraft, our support team is happy to help. Stratus Insight is only available for the U.S.
