You will need to be a little more specific about what problems you are having.

This was already reported here. We are looking into it.

This was already reported and fixed for the next update.

Claude, We have spoken to our chief Saab consultant (Captain), and here is his response.... "No aircraft that I know of, can have the AP mode changed by simply rotating the hdg knob. The Saab will NOT change from NAV to HDG by rotating the hdg knob under any circumstances." Just to be clear, we asked him about the CHP dial as well as the turn knob. He stated that neither of these change the autopilot "mode" when used.

Yes, this feature is simulated, unfortunately there was a bug in the code. I have now fixed this and it will be in the next update. Thanks for reporting.

Claude, The Swedes are famous for "strange" translations in their documentation And the B model has many differences from the A. As you noted above, the documentation states... "The knob is used to manually apply heading commands to the FD/AP". I understand this to mean that turning the knob sends a new heading to the FD/AP, not that it changes the AP mode. However, I may be interpreting the Swedes use of English improperly We will double check with our Saab pilot consultants.

Sounds in the DC3 and Saab are handled very differently, whereas the DC3 uses the standard X-Plane sound engine and the Saab uses a custom sound engine. This tells me that the problem is probably not with the aircraft. Please attach your Log.txt and GizmoLog.txt files here.

Heading "bugs" ? I'm pretty sure there is only one heading bug. Did you mean heading "dials" ? We did not design the Saab, we just simulated it. You would have to ask the engineers at Saab why they have two heading select dials.

Although the LES documentation does state that, the factory documents do not. It must have been missed when we were proofreading the docs. i cannot find any documentation stating that moving the heading turn knob will reset the current autopilot mode.

Losing hydraulic fluid should not affect your ability to start the engine(s). How are you doing you're engine start?, i.e.. auto-start or manual. Several battery starts can overheat the battery and cause problems. Does re-loading the aircraft reset the hydraulic fluid level?

You are using an old version of the Saab. Please upgrade and then report back if you have problems.

I have no idea what might be going wrong on your end. Everything is working fine for us. I have nothing else to offer in the way of help at this time. Are your frame rates at a reasonable level, i.e.. above 25-30? Do you have any other plugins installed? If you want to attach your log.txt and GizmoLog.txt, I could take a look at them.

Those files have zero content (for a reason). The (real world) Saab DOES NOT have altitude callouts, so we will not be adding them.

Yes, there is a bug in the logic. It has been fixed and will be in the next update. This is also a bug and has been fixed. It will also be in the next update. Thanks for reporting these issues. I just did a test. I started the aircraft (Auto-Start), shut off the left bleed valve, switched on the X-Valve, and the X-Valve Open Light came on. Unless you can provide more details, I don't think there is any issue here.

Thanks for reporting this. The issue has been fixed and will be in the next update. I cannot recreate this. I started the aircraft (Auto-Start) and then shut down the right engine. The gen lights DID NOT illuminate. Please provide specific steps on how you created this condition. There are several parameters that need to be met in order for the X-Valve to close. For example: The aircraft must be on the ground. One Bleed Valve must be closed. Bleed pressure must be a minimum of 10psi (approx, 40% eng. speed). The Right Main Bus must be powered. Please verify that these parameters were met when you attempted to close the X-Valve. As previously reported, we are looking into this.

Actually, you can open the cargo door from the outside, you just need to be in 3D cockpit mode.

There is no problem with the cargo door/handle.

You should contact support here.

No, that won't work. The throttle logic in the plugin is completely custom and would not function properly if you did that.

Sounds like a bug. You should report this to Laminar.

Please attach screenshot of the console window when it pops up.

No, you should not assume that. There is an update for the Saab coming soon, which will take care of the engine torque.

There are not any custom commands available for those functions. You could use the following DataRefs... LES/saab/prop/prop_sync_toggle LES/saab/baro_in_hg_dial_pilot LES/saab/baro_in_hg_dial_copilot

First, are you using any hardware? It may be possible that "noise" is causing the flaps or brakes to constantly activate, which may cause a higher rate of leakage. Maybe try disconnecting your hardware and testing. Second, you have quite a few other plugins installed. I would suggest you remove them and see if anything changes. You can then put them back one at a time and see what happens.
