Something I've noticed is that in the AFE Met book it says the SALR is 1.5 degree per thousand feet but I've seen elsewhere its 1.8 degrees. Which one is it?

And one more thing in aircraft general it mentions the turn coordinator (page 124 if anybody is looking) and says "the instrument face is normally vague about what indication represents a Rate One turn, unfortunately it is almost certainly not when the model aircraft's wing is on the left or right mark". Now I've seen the exact opposite and my instructor has confirmed that the mark is a Rate One turn. Is it?

For reference if its difficult to understand what I'm talking about with the turn coordinator heres the wiki link showing a Rate One turn (or is it???):
