I agree, stadimeter isn't very accurate and even adjusting it very carefully flotation line/top of masts usually give an error +- 100m further 90% of time.

I saw this using boats icons on map and solution line.
Mesuring distance to icon with ruler, and putting manually distance in stadi, the solution line just reach the boat icon...now using only stadimeter, solution line is off by at least 100 m

As the distance is corrupted further, i usually set the stadi a little more higher than the top mast.

But in RL, was the stadimeters that accurate too?
