Hi guys, Can someone tell me how to get the HUGS horizon back on the actual one? as you can see below it is floating a good bit above. Kind regards,

nvm

This is normal behavior. YOUR horizon line at altitude will be above the Earths horizon line due to the fact you are now some distance above the Earth. If you were to try and fly the Earth's horizon you would actually now be slightly convergent with the planet, rather than flying parallel to it. In the software you could correct for this phenomenon, however the horizon would eventually end up off the bottom of the display (think Space Shuttle) and it would also destroy your visual reference. Best regards,Robin.

I was about to ask the same question. Thanks for your explaination, Robin!

Greetings guys, I might be normal. However it happens on the ground as well. I am currently in flight (as shown in the shot) so whenever I am down I'll get another screenshot. regards

Hi Martin/Robin How does it compare with this :

Howard, Glad to see you here as well :) I am simply loving this aircraft! Guys here is a little screenshot from 1000feet AGL. and as you can see the HUGS horizon is some 6-7mm above the actual horizon. I don't know if you need to adjust something on the panel or what not. regards,

Hi Howard, The horizon is too high in the sim - see the attached. EDIT: It seems a little bit high: Best regards,Robin.

How does it compare with this :

Not at all. The OP is at level 370. That guy is at 3000. So it doesn't compare.

Guys here is a little screenshot from 1000feet AGL. and as you can see the HUGS horizon is some 6-7mm above the actual horizon.

How come 6-7 MILES?? You're 1200 AGL - and so is the horizon. About a quarter mile I would say.

Etienne, If you take a ruler and put 0 on the actual horizon and then measured the distance up to the HUGS horizon I think you'll find it's about 6-7mm (milimeter) regards

This is all NORMAL.I have at home Garmin's G1000 simulator and does exactly the same. This is due to altitude. By the way, you can do some math and calculate how much of a gap there has to be there depending on your altitude. And BTW, you do not measure this gap in milimiters, you measure it in degrees. Basic knowledge of 3D geometry is required.

EDIT: It seems a little bit high:

No, you picked the wrong location to test it, go somehwere where the terrain is perfectly flat and there are no obstructions (let it float on water ??). Unless your eyes are completely at the pavement level there always could be some gap, however small.

Micheal, I apprechiate your help. At 1000feet AGL I wouldn't expect this much a gap (beeing in mm or degrees) You can clearly see in the video posted by Howard and this one that the green horizon line should infact be on the actual horizon even when you're a thousand feet in the air. I do understand that when climbing the gap will increase.

Regards,

I gave you a good method to test it but you are not listening .... If you insist on this 1000 ft stuff - perform calculations and test in an area which is suitable and then you will know if there is a problem or not. Yes, with 1000 ft there should be already a visible gap but with some math you should be able to get exact figure.
