Choose the path that fits your situation: Become a Feeder — New to ADS-B? # Best for: First-time users with a Raspberry Pi and RTL-SDR. One-line install that auto-detects your hardware, installs everything, and connects to our server. Setup in under 15 minutes. Bare Metal — Already Have a Receiver? # Best for: Users who already run readsb, ADSB.im, or any ADS-B station.https://bharatradar.com/docs/get-started/become-a-feeder/Tue, 05 May 2026 01:00:00 +0530https://bharatradar.com/docs/get-started/become-a-feeder/What You Need # Setting up a feeder requires minimal hardware. Here’s what you need to get started: Component Details Price Raspberry Pi 4 (2GB+) Any model works. Pi 3 is also fine. ~$45 USD (~₹4,000 INR) RTL-SDR Blog v4 The most popular SDR for ADS-B. RTL2832U based. ~$35 USD (~₹3,000 INR) 1090 MHz Antenna A basic PCB antenna works to start. Upgrade later for better range. ~$15 USD (~₹1,500 INR) MicroSD Card (8GB+) Raspberry Pi OS Lite.https://bharatradar.com/docs/get-started/bare-metal/Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000https://bharatradar.com/docs/get-started/bare-metal/Recommended: Use the one-line feeder installer — it auto-detects your hardware and handles everything below automatically. If you already have an ADS-B receiver running readsb (from ADSB.im, Wiedehopf’s scripts, or any other method), you can add BharatRadar as a feeder without disrupting your existing setup. Quick Start # Run this on your existing receiver: curl -Ls https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bharatradar/infra/main/scripts/bharatradar-feeder | sudo bash The installer will detect your existing readsb and offer to reconfigure it, or install fresh alongside.https://bharatradar.com/docs/get-started/docker/Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000https://bharatradar.com/docs/get-started/docker/New to feeding? Most users should start with our one-line feeder installer . The Docker toolkit is for advanced users who want multi-aggregator feeding and full container control. By default, it feeds MLAT+ADSB to bharatradar.com. You can enable UAT/ACARS/VDL2, and feed to your plane data to FlightRadar24, Radarbox, Piaware, and more It is designed to be run on a Raspberry Pi, but can be run on any Linux Debian-like system.https://bharatradar.com/docs/get-started/adsb-image/Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000https://bharatradar.com/docs/get-started/adsb-image/Prefer a simpler setup? Use our one-line feeder installer instead — it’s faster and requires no manual configuration. The ADSB.im feeder image is a pre-built Raspberry Pi image with readsb and multiple aggregator feeds pre-configured. This image is made and maintained by dirkhh with contributions from myself . Please follow the detailed instructions on the ADSB.im website. Feeding to BharatRadar with ADSB.im # Once ADSB.im is installed and running, add BharatRadar as a feeder:
