I’ve not been able to find a wind direction indicator in the DG LS8-18 glider, is it missing ?

…found this useful dg-ls8 instrument panel description, apparently the glider does not have a wind direction indicator. Quite surprised, I’ve found this indicator on the discus-2c very instrumental.

Absoutely although to be fair I’m sure RL glider pilots don’t actually need to look at a guage to know which way they’re being blown. Of course you are right, it’s not so easy in a sim and an indicator toggle of some kind is needed even if just a simple arrow in the corner of the screen
