Attitude Angles

The crosshair tells you exactly how many degrees the device is tilted

Page 7 of 24 MCP / API open OTA updates

A crosshair shows the current tilt direction intuitively, alongside Pitch / Roll / Yaw angles and three-axis angular rates. The crosshair offset is proportional to the actual tilt, so you can tell at a glance whether the device is level.

Commonly used for levelling installations, gimbal calibration and attitude monitoring; combined with the acceleration page it lets you separate "tilt" from "vibration".
