Hi all.  I am in the process of removing all my hair at too early an age.  I have created the bitmaps for a RADIO HEIGHT gauge and I am having trouble getting the code to work.  First I am a newbie at all this gauge stuff so please be kind as bald and bruises do not look good together.  First let me include the code I have as of yet.


     
     
           
     
     
           
     
     
           
           
                 
           
           
                 (A:RADIO HEIGHT, degrees)
                 
                       
                       
                       
                       
                       
                 
           
     
     
           
     


The gauge is appearing on the panel how and where I want it.  The issue I am having is getting the height needle to represent the correct height.  Sitting on the tarmac (433') the gauge reads 85 feet.  As I apply collective the needle rotates until it indicates 5000'.  The aircraft at this point is only 293' off the ground.  What am I doing wrong?  Any help would be appreciated.

(A:RADIO HEIGHT, degrees)

Seems to me this should be "(A:RADIO HEIGHT, feet)"...your units are incorrect.

Roger that.  I began using feet and later switched to using degrees as that is what I read in a tutorial.  I will go back to feet and give it a go again.  Thanks for the help.
