fixed AZ/RL page elevation and azimuth value bug

[GumidekCZ]

There is another bug in AZ/EL page other than I already reported (not accurate elevation scan borders - they show more than scan is).

Now the bug is about two or three things:

1) radar look angle values on top left corner of AZ/EL page. It shows wrong elevation when radar is in STT lock. When is RWS, TWS(MAN/AUTO), elevation value is correct. On picture you can read 61°D (down), but reality was as radar shows exact 30° down.

2) Azimuth value on top left corner of AZ/EL page shows 23°R (right), but as radar screen (and its azimuth scale marks) show, the target was only like 10° off nose of my Hornet. This error is homehow connected to BRAA value, because as you can easy calculate: 347° - 325° = 22°Right - and thats wrong.

3) Third and less apparent bug is hidden in AZ/EL contact mark, which is not exactly matching 30°down mark as can be seen on radar page, but is approximately 5° up of 30°mark (25°Down from nose).

Don't have the time to really read all of this right now, but it might be more helpful for comparing data if you disable the attack format declutter.

Ahh, ok, BRAA is NOT affected by seting MAG/TRUE in A/C page...it show always in TRUE. Is this also a bug?

I thought they fixed this... but that would be a bug. Everything should reference magnetic unless set to true generally.

I discovered this a few days ago too. Didn't notice the azimuth to be wrong, but elevation is. It seems like the 70° page is showing elevation as more than what it shows on the radar page. 30° looks to be right, while the <30° shows smaller values than what radar shows.
