Putting this here as a placeholder to gauge interest. I've been offered a barely-used Stratus 2S at a very low price and will no longer need the Stratux unit that I've built. Attached is the parts list from my Amazon order. Not pictured is the Raspberry Pi 3 Model B the unit is built on.
This unit does not have the GPS chip nor the AHRS chip. I use an iPad Air 2 cellular that has onboard GPS and did not use Synthetic Vision in Foreflight. If someone wanted these added, I would be willing to do so if they wanted to wait.
If there's any interest, I'll accept any reasonable offer.

I have SynVis with my FF subscription and really want to use the AHRS feature, I was looking at building a stratux to use as a better GPS source than my iPad mini cellular has. I might be interested depending on what you want for it. We just started our kitchen remodel and I’m not supposed to be spending any extra money right now, plus it’s tge tail end of flying season here.
My AHRS board has a problem and is disabled at the moment. This is my second Stratux. I am going to replace the sensor board and see if I can get the airplane to stop tilting and rolling.

Try using the yoke and rudder pedals first. It might not be the Stratux.
The Raspberry Pi 3 board in this unit is new as of December 2017 from Frys Electronics. The original Pi 3 board I built on, part of a Vilros kit, died after 3 hours of use. Everything else is new as of May this year via the Amazon order in the screenshot above.
