Hi Erin,
When you enter a value for say just the UCA length, that is the only variable that changes so if you have dramatically shortened the UCA, it will in turn increase the kingpin inclination which will in turn increase the camber.
It is different from when you drag the points around. You've probably noticed that when you drag the UCA / upper kingpin joint it automatically increases the kingpin inclination which in turn keeps the camber constant.
In hindsight it would have been better to apply the same logic to the form input so if you only change one variable, the calculator will automatically adjusts the other "hidden" variables so that in this case the camber remains as -2.7 deg.
For the moment if you have all the dimensions listed in the form input to hand enter them all at once and it should accept them.
I'm working on features to save and share your models for the next update. I will then review the method of inputting data and possibly add an upload using some of the standards you suggested.
Regards,
Huw
