Barometric Altimeter question


Recommended Posts

Posted

Page 53 of the manual: "The small needle point to an altitude in km (scale 3) while the big needle points tens of m (1)."

 

Does this mean that every tick for the small needle is 3km? So when you reach the 5th tick, you'd be at 15km? Thank you.

i dont think so....in the picture next to that sentence...the small needle is labeled "2" and the scale for alt km is labeled "3"....

 

 

....so i believe its just a minor typo....the big needle (1) reads on the outer scale (4) and the little needle (2) is to be read on the inner scale (3)...

 

...the numbers inside the parentheses() is referring to the labels in the picture...

^That's it. The scale is labelled on the actual instrument too.
