It seems, it takes only the first power setting of the aircraft, is that right or is there a mean to change the setting of the map ruler? I saw when I change the aircraft, the information regarding the speed and the used fuel change as the power setting (speed and fuel) is different from the previous aircraft but again, when I take another the power setting, these information remain the same. The only alternative is to create a new aircraft with the power setting I want to use with the map ruler. Thank you for your help. Julien

There isn't a way to configure this. The map rules is primarily designed as a quick way to get the distance and conditions between two points, with flying conditions a bonus on top of this.
