iGoApp

The Android app has been updated to version 1.2. It should be available in Google Play for public testing. This includes several bug fixes, better compatibility with newer version of Android, and updates to libraries. Some issues had to be addressed urgently, so I had no time to work on the interface optimization for tablets. Will be done in the future. Send me an email if you notice any problems.

@Aaron737. I will send you a PM.

Manual for the Android version can be seen here: https://igoapp.ca/resources/Files/saab340/igodispatch_saab340_manual_android_v1.0.pdf

Beta-testing for Android devices (Android 8.0 and higher) should be available here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ca.igoapp.igodispatchsaab340android Although the application should work on Android tablets, UI is not optimized for large screens. This will be dealt with later this year. The manual is being written. Meanwhile, you may use the one for iPhone -- interface is very similar. Manual can be downloaded here: http://igoapp.ca/resources/Files/igodispatch_saab340_manual_phone_v3.0.1.pdf Let me know if you find any issues, bugs, etc.

Hi @jgniewkowski. Once you complete the flight and land (but before you close X-Plane!!), click again on the Download button in the Performance tab. Anything other than Ramp Weight? Cheers.

There has been some discussion around with respect to pitch trim settings, and I thought it might be a good idea to include it in the map pop-up annotation window when you click on the plane icon. While doing this, I have also found a bug that resulted in incorrect pitch trim calculations. Both things have been addressed in the update that has just been released.

An update has just been released. Should be in AppStore shortly. In addition to fixing downloading NOAA winds aloft data, the update includes changing the way the drop-down menus work when selecting runways, SIDs, and STARs, as well as a better representation of Arc to a Fix and Radius to a Fix procedures on the map. Also, if you are connected to X-Plane on the ACARS panel, tapping the plane icon will show estimated V or reference speed for the current weight.

Android version is in development. Should cover the rest of the world except for those who deliberately refuse to use a smart phone.

Cool it wasn't iGoDispatch.

Looks like NOAA have changed their server links again. NOAA winds aloft data cannot be downloaded. Will be fixed in the next update. Meanwhile, you may use winds aloft data from X-Plane. Stay tuned.

Updated version of the iGoConnect plugin can be downloaded here: https://forums.x-pilot.com/files/file/707-igoconnect/ http://igoapp.ca/igoconnect/igoconnect.html IMPORTANT: If you have MacOS Catalina (10.15) or higher, it is possible that after downloading and installing the plugin, you will not find it in the X-Plane's menu. This error is caused by the MacOS security protocols during the X-Plane start-up process that references a Mac.xpl file. If you do not see iGoConnect in the menu of the simulator, the following link explains how to solve the problem: https://x-plane.helpscoutdocs.com/article/26-mac-xpl-not-starting.

@Jorg Bliesener Hi. I continue to enjoy your plugin with IXEG. However, I installed version 1.2.4 Beta, and now I have begun having CTDs and BSoDs when I fly another plane (e.g., LES's Saab). Whenever you plugin is removed, no crashes. I do not seem to be able to return back to the previously stable version either. If you cannot replicate the issue on your PC, I can send you a Log.txt file. Thanks!

@Chase911 Do you have iGoConnect already installed? If no, please download and install it and then replace the above file as per instructions. If yes, is this version 2.40? If no, download and install the latest version and then replace the above file. If yes, just replace the file. I will be preparing the full plug-in package over the weekend. Cheers.

Please try the attached win.xpl file for the iGoConnect plugin (64-bit version). Unzip the win.xpl file and copy-paste it in folder X-Plane/Resources/plugins/iGoConnect/64/. Replace the old file when prompted. Please let me know if you have any problems. win.xpl.zip

Can someone please try whether the following update works on your Mac? Unzip the mac.xpl file and copy-paste it in folder X-Plane/Resources/plugins/iGoConnect. Replace the old file when prompted. Windows will be tested later. Thank you so much for your help! mac.xpl.zip

The application does not recognize the newly updated plane. No worries. As soon as I figure out how to update boost libraries on my mac, I will update the iGoConnect plugin to address this. Very nice work with the update, by the way!

I have just updated the application for iOS. One major change is the ability to enter or copy and paste from another source the full flightplan into a textview and download the pertinent data from the server (X-Plane). Previously, you would have to enter each waypoint separately and press a button to download it. Akin to the desktop version, the entered plan will omit SIDs and STARs -- they can be added later. Type in the plan (or copy and paste it) and tap on the button with the plus sign next to the textview. The updated version includes some bug fixes and UI improvements for iOS14. I have also changed the satellite map to a newer cool feature -- Satellite Flyover map. If you notice any bugs due to the change, feel free to drop me a line. If you do not have the application already installed on your iOS device, you will likely see a pop-up message requesting access to your local network. Once you approve it, you will see another warning that connection was not established. The latter would relate to your first attempt to connect. Just tap OK and try again -- it should work. Cheers.

A new version will be available in AppStore shortly. In addition to a number of bug and UI fixes, the update includes the following improvements: - Calculation of weights and CG has been adjusted based on DOW of 17,215 lbs, which, as far as I understand, is the correct weight to be updated in the next version of the plane. - iOS and iPadOS now have a new type of map -- Satellite Flyover. I thought it looked nice and I added it to the application. - Most important update is that you do not have to add individual waypoints of your flightplan anymore. You can now copy and paste the flightplan into a textbox, and it will be uploaded from X-Plane. You still need to run X-Plane as a server. SIDs and STARs will not be uploaded, you may add them afterwards. Some more good news: development of this application for Android phones is about two thirds over. No ETA yet, and there is still a lot of work to do. I hope, it will be released in summer. Cheers.

Hi, Roy. Thank you so much for getting the application! First of all, did you check out the manual? http://www.igoapp.ca/resources/Files/b733/igd_b733_manual_desktop.pdf Please let me know if something is not clear, and I will be happy to help. A few days ago, I updated Windows and was no longer able to connect again. Turned out that my firewall settings were somehow reset and I had to disable it completely to be able to connect again. Had to restart PC as well. Happy New Year!

The desktop version includes two things that the iOS version is missing: a panel with procedures and real-time (as opposed to instant) pax and fuel loading. This will eventually be implemented in the iOS version, but I cannot say when.

The program definitely works with v1.3 on my computer. Do other people have any problems with 1.3? Please share here even if you do not. In 99% of cases, careful reading of the manual solves issues. @jeffreymg, what exactly is the problem that you have? @Ghostbusters, did you buy the program and cannot load it? I hope that @Cameron will be able to help here. As far as other questions by @rafgath are concerned: yes, it works in Windows and Mac since this is a Java application. It can be installed either on the same or a different computer.

If you have noticed that you can’t download NOAA winds aloft data anymore, no worries. This is because NOAA seems to have changed the structure of files on their server. This issue will be addressed.

One more thing. Recently, NOAA winds aloft stopped getting downloaded for me. Looks like NOAA changed the way they keep files on their server. This is currently being addressed as well.

Hi, Hugo. Thanks for providing this information. I will be looking into this. Stay tuned. Optimum altitude is determined by weight and ISA (actually, FPPM provides the same altitude for three different ISA options). It then adjusts the FL to your flight direction (odd for 1-180 and even for 181 to 360). Since your current weight is 55-56K kg and you are heading west, you get rounded altitude of 340. Cheers. EDIT: Problem with Vref speeds identified and fixed. Should be able to compile the update next week. Thanks, Hugo, for pointing out the bug!
