This is a modification of the ADS-B Ground plane antenna by Markend on thingiverse.  I liked the original design of the antenna and radom but it is not optimized for 3d printing with the large mounting points.  I created an insert that can accept a pole up to 1" in diameter and modified the antenna base to accept 5mm set screws.  Additionally I created a mount for ¾" pvc pipe that can be used to mount the antenna.

 

To create the antenna you will need the following: 

1x F type connector

1x 20mm washer

8x 73mm copper wire (I used 14 AWG) for ground plane

1x 65mm copper wire for antenna

 

To track aircraft you will need a USB SDR and a MCX to F type adapter.  For the software I used the Flightradar 24 Pi image.
