I switched from Foreflight to WingX Pro a while back when I got my Skyradar unit because Foreflight in its infinite wisdom decided to only use the Stratus. Their choice but I know they lost a lot of customers because of that.
Anyway, I also cancelled my XM weather to save the almost $60 bucks a month.
While flying around and really using this stuff now I've noticed that I couldn't find the winds aloft and temps and freezing levels that ADSB provides. I could find the Internet provided WX but it was always hours old.
I called Hilton and was told that, yes, it's not available yet, but they hope the March update will have it.
The WingX website touts all the ADSB receivers it works with but itdoesn't mention that you are not really getting all the available weather.
This is just a heads up not to think you are getting everything you thought with WingX yet. It's a great tool but it's still short on some handy features that it's competitors already have.
