wolf_288 Posted June 4, 2011 Posted June 4, 2011 Hi Did a mission with a A-10(fc2) it takeoff and I set the autopilot on and the first waypoint to 2000m but it´s goes to 6500m anyone know why ??
Maverick-90 Posted June 4, 2011 Posted June 4, 2011 the A-10 displays altitude in feet -> 6000 feet = 2000 m
DarkFire Posted June 4, 2011 Posted June 4, 2011 The extra 500 was probably due to the barometric pressure set for that mission. Having said that, I've never seen it make THAT much difference before.

EtherealN Posted June 4, 2011 Posted June 4, 2011 (edited) There is no "extra 500". 6500 feet is 2000 meters almost exactly. (1 981.2 meters to be exact.) http://www.google.se/search?sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8&q=6500+feet+in+meters 6000 feet is 1 828 meters - the "times three" rule is just a convenience conversion people use when precision is not necessary. (So for example, Angels 30 is NOT 10km altitude, it's 9144 meters.)
