the picture should indicate what I am referring too.
encircled in red, i marked a couple of the ticks with a lime pen lol
surprised the user guide doesn’t specify this
Don’t quote me on this, but I believe each of these intervals is 10º.
How about pitch
Bank is 10° until the 4th line which is 45° and the 5th line is 60° (if the setup is based on a G1000 setup). Pitch is measured for ever 5°
The roll indicators on the HUD are all 10 degrees apart.
So, 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 degrees.
Yeah, it’s curious why 10º marks for bank and 5º marks for pitch.
In each case it’s the balance between sufficient accuracy vs clutter from excessive detail.
A bank leading up to a standard turn’s 30º bank is more than adequately judged in 10º divisions (a display with 6 marks, if in 5º divisions, can’t be meaningfully processed at a glance…count the ticks etc.).
But for pitch, a 2º angle difference can make a very real difference in vertical speed, for example. So, you need angle marks down to 5º increments.
