Why showing place wrong inserting coordinate to entity position with Cesium.Cartesian3.fromDegrees

1. A concise explanation of the problem you're experiencing.

Coordinates of entity with entity position with Cesium.Cartesian3.fromDegrees(lat,long,height) from WGS84 show wrong place...

2. A minimal code example. If you've found a bug, this helps us reproduce and repair it.

window.setInterval("flightradar('D-AEWS')",100);

var res4=0
var res5=0
var res6=0
var res7=0

3. Context. Why do you need to do this? We might know a better way to accomplish your goal.

following aircraft in 3d with flightradar api

4. The Cesium version you're using, your operating system and browser.

cesium 1.51, win10/64, Qt 5.10.1 / 64 / MSVC2015 / WebView

Can you explain a little more? Where is the entity showing up on Cesium vs where do you expect it to show up? How far away is it from the correct position? Does the flight radar API return longitude latitude as well?

I think you might just be passing lat/long in the wrong order. See:
