JGregory I did file a ticket on the 1st of August with X-Aviation as a matter of fact that is where I started with this process. I've included their response below. Cameron S. Thu, 08/01/19 3:17 pm Hello Charles, Thanks for writing in! All technical questions and bug reports related to the Saab 340 should be posted in the Leading Edge Simulation forums located here: http://forums.x-pilot.com/forums/forum/158-saab-340a/ This is the best way to get our developers' attention. They read and log each and every report and if necessary may contact you in private message to further diagnose and test builds on your machine. Best Regards, Cameron It actually appears that they believe this is the formal support channel for on sending me this reply they immediately closed the ticket as 'solved'. Consider this thread closed for I've uninstalled the aircraft. I certainly wouldn't want to waste anymore of my time engaged in conversation with anyone other than the formal support channel and it is clear you don't want to waste your time doing what mustn't be your job.

I'm fully aware you were ignoring me and that's kinda my point. Do point out the press release or post or whatever it is you did to tell 'everyone' that an update is in the works. I'm more than willing to apologize when proven wrong. But I must admit I stopped looking on this site after the 4th or 5th of August. I'm more than willing to give you those exact steps since you finally today asked for them. Key phrase being finally. Stay tuned I'm sure it will take less than 28 days for me to send that but then maybe after all the constant repeated without working attempts my next attempt will magically work it is X-Plane after all.

JGregory I think my earlier comments were crystal clear and all I got in response was silence. I don't randomly push buttons and I had lots of good hours flying this plane using the autopilot without problem until xp was updated. My assumption at this point is that the creator of this aircraft no longer supports the aircraft. Or something less polite. If you wish to engage In a healthy discussion about testing the problem or duplicating the problem in other circumstances I'm more than willing to help.

Well you know I find every plane behaves a little differently as the versions of x-plane progresses. But you know I did the uninstall/reinstall when it first happened and no go so I"m surprised this isn't happening to others.

I checked and I reinstalled this plane in the May 19th. Which I'm sure is around 11.33 going public

Good question so I did a test this morning. Fired up the old bird and set up everything as usual the trim sat in the green stable and not doing anything unexpected while on the ground. Upon takeoff when I activated the ap all hell breaks loose. The trim went full down right to the bottom of the display then flipped full up then bounced between full up/down several times a second all while the plane was climbing eventually settling into a full nose up stall and crash. Tried the same test nothing set before takeoff same results as soon as the ap activates trim bounces like a mad man. Tried VS instead of climb setting the VS to 1500 ft/m same crazy bounce on ap activation. Before this problem I had 56 hours of smooth flying out of this plane .

So I've flown this plane a lot up until 11.33 came out at that point the autopilot started having a stability problem so I went off and flew other planes. 11.34 came out problem continued and now 11.35 is out and the problem continues. Figured I should step up and find out what is going on. My normal procedure before takeoff regarding autopilot is to prep the flight plan in the GN, setup the heading to the runway, set the desired altitude and preset the climb option. Once a few hundred feet up I raise the gear and hold the YD/Auto pilot switches. Let go make sure they catch. Once stable and climbing flip from heading to GPS. At all times during this part COT is active. Since 11.33 the climb keeps going nose up... and up... and up right to the chevrons. I'll push the nose down. Stability is never achieved. With autopilot the plane is fine. I did reinstall the latest update when this first happened. I haven't included a log at this point hoping this is a known bug when x or y is broken.
