Virtual aoa calibration

Post by bvolcko »

I enabled the virtual aoa in my discovery lite. How do I calibrate it?

It's been awhile but I believe it is in System Setup menu. It is obviously done in flight and I think it is a cruise setting and a caution as well as stall setting. Once reaching the appropriate speeds you select each of the three to calibrate.

Thank you very much. A very clear explanation. I had not realized the firmware has been updated again. I was working with the previous version and the simulator has not been updated so I can't practice at home.
