I use the nrf51 as well, but not in windows and wireshark supports the pipe without plugins now as of 2.3.0
The adafruit python script is pretty good, but didnt have pipe support, heres my PR https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_BLESniffer_Python/pull/14 and heres a gist of me using it https://gist.github.com/jacobrosenthal/6f36eea3653bacaeae23152cb4941c48 I think an inherent in the original post is anyone have a workflow for native development with blehci instead of flashing which also easily ports back over to device with say a target change? Seems like all the bits are there.
