RADAR
General
A color weather radar system displays
weather and ground targets at up to 320
nautical miles range.
The radar antenna is gyro stabilized in pitch
and roll. The antenna tilt is controllable from
15 degrees up, to 15 degrees down.
The digital indicator displays weather or
mapping targets in green, yellow and red
colors. Areas of light precipitation or ground
targets with low level reflectivity are
represented by green areas on the display.
Areas of lower density precipitation or
ground targets with moderate reflectivity
are represented by yellow areas on the
display. Areas of high density precipitation or
ground targets with high reflectivity are
represented by red areas on the display.
In this panel the targets displayed on the
radar screen is actual precipitation as
simulated by P3D. However, currently the
strength of the targets is not available
through the P3D SDK. All targets are
therefore indicated as green, i.e. light
precipitation.
