Calculating Trajectory Formula not correct in DOP

I just used a very simple formula

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trajectory_of_a_projectile

 

to calculate the trajectory of a projectile, when angle and target is given and velocity is searched. It seems to work, but i have slight errors, this error is getting more if the distance is higher. Any suggestions?

 

Regards

I took a long look at this and couldn't really figure out what's wrong. Your math seems to be correct, so DOPs really should match the result, but I can't get it to do that either.

In my opinion this is worth reporting as a bug, something this simple really should match the real world.
