Altimeter
An altimeter is displayed on the right
side of the screen as a transparent tape,
graduated in hundreds of feet, and an
arrow outlined in yellow displaying
two current altitudes. The white value
indicates the altitude of the aircraft
above mean sea level (MSL). The
yellow value indicates the altitude of
the aircraft above the ground level
(AGL).
When you are close to the ground, an
orange triangle is displayed as an alert.
The base of the triangle shows the
ground elevation. The top of the
triangle represents the terrain aware-
ness altitude based on the settings in
the configuration menu.
