would it be possible to show the Radar and not the plane detail?
The radar is not (currently) filtered, so if you add a “catch all” filter, only the radar will show.
You will still be able to list flights by clicking on them in the radar view, since selected flights overrides the filter.
Edit: Just realized the “No flights” message will be displayed. I’ll get back to this.

As an opposite question of what FortranFour asked, it would it nice to configure the Flightradar24 integration to optionally use a tracker for the location instead of a fixed lat/lon pair?
Thanks for this…very nice card.
When adding the new location config to my install the card complained when only location: (with lat/lon) was specified that location_tracker: was missing from the config…adding this back in (with a zone rather than device_tracker so it doesn’t report a location) made the card work fine again (and using the lat/lon as I can see flights at home while currently away)
Nice card. Well done!
I just read through your documentation about templating. Would be nice if you can give one sample config of this card including template configuration.

Hi there. I know it is possible to track specific flights because it says so right at the top of this page “2. Track a particular plane or planes no matter where it currently is” but I don’t see an example of how to do that. I understand that we can’t track flights that haven’t left yet but I haven’t seen examples of how to track specific flights already in the air. I suppose there are two aspects to it. The first is using an input text helper to enter the flight number and the second is some kind of lovelace card that displays all the pertinent information about the tracked flight.
Could someone who has done this please post their card yaml configuration showing how this is done?
Or if this “how to” info with examples is in the documentation somewhere, can you point me to it?
Thank you very much!

How do you want to use add to track? In automation? if yes - there is an example
automation:
- alias: "Track flights"
trigger:
platform: event
event_type: flightradar24_exit
condition:
- condition: template
value_template: "{{ 'Frankfurt' == trigger.event.data.airport_origin_city }}"
action:
- service: text.set_value
data:
value: "{{ trigger.event.data.aircraft_registration }}"
target:
entity_id: text.flightradar24_add_to_track
v1.15.0 Released
Changelog
- Added tracking scheduled flights. Now you may start tracking a scheduled flight before it appears on the FR24 live map. And get notification when the flight takes off. For more details please check README
Yes, I agree.
I would like to see an example for a scheduled plane by flight number as I would like to track a few planes on a daily basis but dont want to do all flights from origin airport.
Also, is there a way to see all tracked flight numbers added as I may have added a couple of wrong ones, if it stores them ?
Thanks
For example, you may call service like I post above to start tracking a plane by flight number
...
- service: text.set_value
data:
value: "{{ pass here flight number to track }}"
target:
entity_id: text.flightradar24_add_to_track
To see all tracked flights numbers
card:
type: markdown
content: >-
{% set data = state_attr('sensor.flightradar24_additional_tracked',
'flights') %} {% for flight in data %}
{{ flight.flight_number }}
{% endfor %}
@AlexandrErohin …Thank you for your reply . For some reason Flightradar24 has banned my ip so I am trying to get it to work again .the add on just says unavailable since the ip is banned.

My plug in integration refresh time was set to 10 seconds and radius 100metres since I only needed tracking for particular flights . I wonder why did they ban my ip.
Hi,
What was the code for the sensor.flights_above_hourly ?
I am new to Home Assistant so i understand it goes in the config file?
Thanks
How to get rid of the flightradar24 branding and the app store icons.
Left is how the instructions left me, the right is how I tweaked it.
Hope this makes your dashboards a bit nicer
Create an html page in the www folder and remember the name. I used fr1.html
Replace the flightradar link with your lat/long/zoom link

How do I add additional tracked? Is add to track the same as the filter by callsign in the flightradar website?
I try to add a single and list of tracked items but it just stays at 0
Is there a relevant log in Settings->System->Logs?
Log showed that the tracked plane wasn’t found.
I guess aircraft can only be tracked and added when the are actively transmitting their beacon.
This error originated from a custom integration.
Logger: custom_components.flightradar24

FlightRadar24: No flight found by - PT-ZNG
FlightRadar24: No flight found by - GAF858
Some of these arrived now.
I am near an airshow and was hoping to get alerted when certain planes enter airspace or take off for display
HAWK, GM766, XX219 - cannot be found FlightRadar search on their site. So why integration cannot add them
Hello,
I have the same issue, it seems I am not able to find any flights no matter what, departed or scheduled. I am talking about the “Add to track” function.
Could you please assist?
Also, is there a possibility to generate incremental graphs and/or autmatically export the flights into a google spreadsheet to keep a record?
Much appreciated, thanks.
