Nav tool question & aiming question

[rcs929]

hallo!

First question: I was curious about the navigation help tool bearing marks. Mine have 0 at south, 180 at north (RuB v1.45). Is not north 0? Are the tools correct, why are they marked this way when the compass is the opposite?


My next question is about aiming. Is there a spread angle on a single shot torp setting? I'm asking do i need to compensate for this angle when aiming with the scope/uzo or remove it from the torp setting?

The nav tools are upside down on purpouse. Youll find them more usefull this way.

Let's say you want to navigate North. you know North is 0 degress. You know North is up. So you dray a waypoint up to set your course north and notice that doing this makes a green line between you and your waypoint. A line that TRAILS (is behind) the navpoint. A line that touches the down side part of the nav map aid tool. A line that crosses the 0 degree mark on the nav map aid tool ;) ... got it? :up:

ah! ok now that makes sense to me now, thanks for that info. I just draw lines to where I go & not use the tools for that so when I saw them upside down I didn't understand why.

the aiming question is moot, i'm using auto target for now till I learn how to use manual.
