Later I'll post few screenshots to demonstrate this "error". It could be that imprecision in aspect ratio fixes are effecting sextant function both from normal periscope/UZO and from sextant as well.
I am aware of this problem. Take measurements so that you don't have to raise the fine aiming line above 1.5 - 2 centimeters from the crosshair, then there will be no error.

At one time, I investigated in great detail all the reasons causing errors in measurements, this is how my video "3 secrets ..." was born, where I summarized my many years of experience in 5 minutes.
