• vMB114: import traffic data in GDL90 format (from ADS-B receiver)
• vMB110: added second serial port and data bridging (only on T-Beam)

Beyond Lyusupov's version:

• Collision prediction for circling aircraft
• Can set aircraft ID for self, ID to ignore, and ID to follow
• Support 3-level collision alarms via buzzer
• Can configure two simultaneous NMEA output destinations
• Settable baud rate for serial output
• Estimates wind while circling, uses for collision prediction
• Corrected frequency hopping and time slots
• Airborne devices relay radio packets from landed aircraft
• Can adjust SoftRF settings within T-Echo (without an app)

And on the T-Beam specifically:

• Louder buzzer via 2-pin differential drive, or external
• Collision-danger traffic VOICE warnings!
• Includes strobe-control logic
• Option to connect to ambient WiFi network instead of creating one
• Option to send data as TCP client instead of TCP server
• Specify server's IP address for TCP client, and choice of 2 ports
• Ability to use WiFi TCP & UDP NMEA outputs simultaneously
• These WiFi options allow wireless output to XCvario
• Detect and use OLED display on either I2C port
• Winch mode ("aircraft type") with variable reported altitude
