Before I bought my SBS-3 I had the RadarBox 3D as well (I still have it but don't use it anymore).
My problem with the 3D view is that it displays the aircraft at incorrect altitude. The altitude are sent to the Google Earth plugin in feet but Google Earth only accepts meters and interprets the number as meters.
That means an aircraft that is in reality flying at 8000feet is displayed at 8000m instead. I have reported this error to AirNav some years ago but it hasn't been fixed, yet.
One of the reasons why I now own the SBS-3.

Grahame, if I can make it to the ADS-B workshop, I can show you how you can open the 3D-view in a normal browser window and how to increase its performance. The big advantage of that is that you can run the RadarBox software on one screen and the 3D-View on a different screen in fullscreen mode. You can use the RadarBox software to display the map view and at the same time enjoy the 3D view on the other screen.
