Heading Indicator

Description
This display is intended to be re-projected onto a 2x2 screen, it'll work on a 1x1 too but 2x2 is preferable.

1. Find a suitable place for a 3x3 screen showing this microcontroller's Video Output.
2. Place a small camera 3 blocks away, centered on monitor.
3. Show the output from the small camera on a 2x2 or 1x1 monitor.

Select appropriate plane model in options menu of Microcontroller.
Heading Bug input can be enabled/disabled in the options menu. Accepts input in turns (like the compass).

i cant get my heading bug to work, im trying to display heading to relative waypoint lol, what is the input for the heading bug supposed to be? radians? degrees? -0.5 to 0.5 compass range?

i tried all 3 and its not working but its possible my math is off lol

very cool, I needed a thing to fill a empty monitor on my f/a 18. It is realistic, practical and good-looking. 9/10 :steamthumbsup:

why is there an option for a "small plane" when you literally can't fit this setup in any small plane

the recording also works with a large hud, just surround it in blocks painted black and you dont need a 5x3

Updated with correct compass indication, and heading bug. (You can enable/disable the heading bug in the options)

Updated with big and small plane models, select your preferred model in the Microcontroller's Dropdown menu.

The text "PLANE" was really just meant as a joke placeholder, it was getting kinda late and I didn't feel like drawing an actual plane. It is customizable if you feel like editing the Lua itself, I forgot which line it is but it's the one that says "PLANE".

I'll edit this to replicate real life heading indicators better. When I made it I worked off of a single reference image which wasn't ideal.

Nice, I suggest slightly transparent needle. Thus it'll not render the number/letter unreadable when hovers on it, or the needle can be shorter.

Is the label "PLANE" customizable?
