Go into aircraft conf and enter your preferred decent rate.

Hi there!

I would like to see option to choose my own ascent/descent rate and/or specify altitude/height over specific point. Why I would like about that feature is that for example I could check 400 feet per minute descent rate for my descent leg and then it would give me exact point from where I should start my descent. Also, another example: I fly in controlled airspace and there are VRP contact points which can be passed max 1200ft. When I come from cross country then it would be very nice to check the end of the leg over that exact point at 1200ft. At the moment virtual radar is showing way too steep descent rate for my liking.

See picture in attachment. Would like to be 1200 over "Vaida". 

Thank you,
