Live-METAR Map Kit – 50 Light DIY Builder Set

The 50-light Live-METAR Map Kit is a complete do-it-yourself system designed for home pilots, aviation enthusiasts, classrooms, and offices. The kit includes an ESP32 microcontroller computer module, a string of 50 fully addressable 5V LED lights, and a dedicated 110V-to-5V power block with micro-USB cable. Simply mount the LEDs into the map of your choice, arrange your airports in order, and use the built-in double-plug setup mode to configure Wi-Fi and preferences from a phone or laptop. Once connected, the system downloads current METAR reports and updates all airport lights at the same time, displaying VFR, MVFR, IFR, or LIFR conditions instantly. This kit provides a fun, informative, and reliable weather awareness tool, but is not a replacement for an official FAA weather briefing.
