1.8
Description
MechJeb miscalculates time for launch into inclined target orbits. Simple example: Minimus is still 2.8° inclined.

I did dig into LaunchTiming.TimeToPlane, but it is hard to understand with current documentation.
You need to show what the value is of the phase angle next to "launch to plane" is before you press the button to launch. If that is not zero then you are entering a manual offset in degrees to lead the launch.
that's probably from the rendezvous planner it needs to do a launch to compute the lead angle which it saves there, so that when you revert it should be (more) accurate, but it is the same setting as launch-to-plane uses.
