Flightaware ADS-B USB stick as a SDR

[SKINNY1]

I was told you could use a FlightAware ADS-B USB stick (the orange one) as an SDR however I can find no drivers for the USB stick. Any ideas where to find the drivers? Thank you, Skinny

Same Zadig driver you use for any other dongle based on the RTL chipset.

It didn't work. Couldn't find the chipset for the Flightaware USB Stick.

I have a FlightAware Pro Stick dongle (the orange one) plugged into my PC as I type this, and Zadig was used to install the WinUSB (v6.1.7600.16385) driver, same as all my other dongles (NooElec, RTL-SDR.com, etc.)

Make sure to go to Options > List All Devices

I have a Flightaware orange. Due to it's built in pre-amp its only good for 350mhz to about 2 or 3 ghz reception. go lower than 350mhz everything drops off sharply
