Decision Height selector knob

Recommended Posts

The Decision Height selector can only be adjusted down with the mouse left button - where the up arrow should be there's an X in a circle. The Decision Height can be increased with the mouse wheel for now.

No response? OK, in addition to the missing/inactive clickspot, the DH gauge needle disappears when the plane climbs above 2,500ft:

 

Under 2,500ft:

Notice that the DH Set indicator is at 400ft in the above screenshots - now YOU try setting that with your left mouse button!

This is normal operation for Rad alt.  rad alt is height above ground, for anything higher you would look at altimeter. Other than an indicator, there are more systems tied to it, such as gpws, egpws, etc

I think his point is, the gauge is analog and shouldn't actually disappear. It should probably just sit, pinned at 2500'. Otherwise, you're correct - no need to use the radio atlimeter above 2500' agl.

I checked in the Twin Otter. Here's a screenshot where you can see how the needle is disappearing behind the screen.
