TA-913 — Plaspy compatible aviation tracker
The TA-913 is a compact aviation communications and tracking device designed for fixed-wing and rotary-wing operations. Built for in-flight safety and straightforward ground-station integration, the TA-913 pairs with Plaspy to deliver timely alerts, status messages and satellite text communications between aircraft and ground control. Its aviation-focused controls and Bluetooth gateway make it an ideal companion for operators who need reliable situational awareness and crew-to-ground messaging.
Plaspy compatible out of the box, the TA-913 brings pilot-friendly buttons and a Bluetooth link to smartphones or tablets so crews can exchange satellite text messages with a ground station even when traditional radio links fail. Use the TA-913 with Plaspy for unified dashboards, alerts and logging that support fleet management, telemetry collection and aviation safety workflows.
Key Highlights
- Designed for aviation: purpose-built for fixed-wing and rotary-wing aircraft operations.
- Panic button for fast emergency signaling to ground control through Plaspy-enabled workflows.
- Point-of-interest (POI) marker button to log and transmit critical locations during flight or mission flights.
- Ground-call notification button that alerts the cockpit when ground control needs to contact the crew after a radio link loss.
- Satellite text messaging capability to exchange short messages between the aircraft and a ground station.
- Bluetooth gateway to pair a smartphone or tablet, using the mobile device as a communication interface and control surface.
- Easy installation and intuitive controls reduce crew training time and improve operational readiness.
How It Works with Plaspy
When integrated with Plaspy, the TA-913 becomes part of a single operational picture for aircraft fleets. Plaspy ingests the TA-913’s status messages, emergency inputs and satellite text communications, correlates them with flight and operator data, and displays them in real time on dashboards and maps. Operators receive alerts, can acknowledge messages, and archive communications for compliance and post-flight review.
- Real-time alerts and message relay: TA-913 transmits safety and status messages to Plaspy for immediate operator attention.
- Panic and POI events: Button-initiated events are forwarded to Plaspy so dispatchers can react and coordinate response.
- Satellite text messaging gateway: Crew messages routed via Plaspy’s communications logs for traceability.
- Bluetooth smartphone/tablet integration: Mobile devices paired to the TA-913 act as a user interface and a data gateway.
- Integration-ready: Plaspy captures events and messages from TA-913 for reporting, telemetry correlation, and fleet management workflows.

Why Choose This Tracker with Plaspy
The TA-913 is engineered for operators who prioritize safety, continuity of communications, and straightforward integration. As a Plaspy compatible device, it provides a clear data path from cockpit to control center: button-initiated events and satellite text messages become actionable items in Plaspy’s interface. That gives dispatchers and fleet managers a reliable way to handle emergencies, preserve communications logs, and maintain situational awareness across a fleet.
Pairing the TA-913 with Plaspy reduces the complexity of managing telemetry and messaging in aviation operations. While Plaspy can support broader telemetry, fuel monitoring, ignition or immobilizer features for devices that provide them, the TA-913 focuses on resilient messaging, crew-initiated events and Bluetooth-enabled interoperability with mobile devices—delivering a dependable safety layer for aircraft operations.
