not correct for version F18 pilot says you can set 8.1 AOA with DDI page?

You need the edited LUA's that adds the White ref markers. Attached in the Zip. Use at your own risk. back up anything in there before using these. The 2 files go in:

........:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\Mods\aircraft\FA-18C\Cockpit\Scripts\ControlsIndicator

These files get overwritten with each update so you need to re do the process post update.

@Hammer1-1 The probe/cone-shaped sensor is new to me. It makes sense if it measures differential-pressure between one port on the top and one on the bottom. But, the fact that it can rotat puzzles me.

Ok little update -  I found one of these on a Cessna Citation Jet early this week and YEAH it rotates!  It has a single inlet that I guess gets rotated relative to air flow. Other citations have the actual AoA vane, so not really sure why one has the other. I know speed MAY play a part in it, but Ive seen a few B-1s with AoA vanes, so doubt that...on top of the fact that Cessna Citations arent well known speed demons. Oh well...
