Buttons
・Arrow Buttons:
Each control section (Speed, Heading, Altitude) features a pair of arrow buttons.
The inner trapezoidal region of each button adjusts the value with smaller increments.
The outer triangular tip adjusts the value with larger increments, allowing for both fine-tuning and rapid adjustments.
・Unit Toggle Function:
A dedicated “Unit Change” button allows switching between imperial and metric units.
Upon switching, values are automatically converted and rounded:
Speed (both knots and kph) and Altitude (in metres) : to the nearest 5 units
Altitude (in feet) : to the nearest 10 feet
