Little pushback setup tip: use the scrollwheel!

I couldn't find it in the manuals (probably my fault ;) ) but to my amazement and joy I accidently discovered that when you have to set the pushback options (distance and angle) you can use the scroll wheel on the buttons! Usually scrolling is used for rotating knobs and so on so I didn't expect this.

During the tutorial flight setup I got a sore finger of clicking those buttons to reach the required distance of 9 and the angle of 90... ;) Scrolling works a lot faster!

I have one request for the push back right now it changes 1 meter and default is 50 which in some airport by the time its complete you either on the runway or grass area.

I would suggest to make default 25 meters or have the change increments of 5 instead of 1.

I thought about that too but it turns out that shorter pushbacks don't work at all: you get pushed back to around 50 meters anyway at least. So using the distance feature is a bit useless unless you need greater distances.
