Attitude / Compass

The attitude and compass widget is displayed in the Fly View and provides a real-time heads-up display of the vehicle's orientation.

Attitude Indicator

The attitude indicator (artificial horizon) shows the vehicle's pitch and roll relative to the horizon:

  • Horizon line — tilts and shifts to reflect the vehicle's current attitude
  • Pitch ladder — graduated marks above and below the horizon showing pitch angle in degrees
  • Roll pointer — arc along the top indicating the current roll angle

Compass

The compass ring surrounds the attitude indicator and shows the vehicle's heading:

  • Heading value — displayed at the top of the compass, showing the current heading in degrees
  • Cardinal directions — N, S, E, W markers around the ring
  • Course indicator — shows the direction of travel relative to heading

Changing the Display

You can choose from different attitude/compass display styles. Right-click (desktop) or touch-and-hold (tablet/phone) the widget to select an alternative.
