"Reverser angle" as used here is a way to manipulate the thrust vector, along the thrust axis ONLY, during run time. This should not be confused with a thrust vectoring nozzle. The angle is defined in radians, and is used thus: Final_thrust = cosine( reverser_angle ) * unmodified_thrust. Therefore a reverser angle of 0 results in no change, and a reverser angle of 3.14 (pi) results in a completely reversed thrust vector. An angle of 1.57 (pi/2) results in no thrust at all.
