su 27/33 antenna elevation HUD indicator

Hi there,

 

I noticed the radar antenna elevation on the HUD no longer displays a number as it did before (it's been a while since I flew the SU 27).

 

I'd swear that number represented how much above/below the radar was pointing relative to the aircraft altitude and the estimated target distance; so if you know your targets are around 70km away at 11000m, and you're at 8000m, you canset the estimated target distance to 70 and move the antenna up until the number indicator showed 3.

 

Now I can only see the caret moving up/down, but I don't have any clue as how much high/low I'm scanning at. If if move it all the way down I can see a -15 indication beside the caret, but as soon as I move it up, the -15 dissapears (and there's also a "50" displayed all the way up at the end of the vertical HUD line that shows up when the -15 is displayed).

 

I checked the manual and I think I'm doing it right...did this change lately?
