      Can you elaborate on what changed in the recent update with the heading bug. I am using Saitek panels and the heading bug was working fine for me using the simconnect variable autopilot heading lock. After the update I don't seem able to adjust the heading bug. Thanks.
      John.

        @jcallum Hey, I have the same problem. Support told me it's HSI_HDG_BUG, despite me telling them explicitly that this variable does not move the heading bug via Spad.Next. The only thing that kind of "works" (i.e., give any kind of reaction) is HSI_HEADING_KNOB, which I don't think is how it is supposed to work (and it doesn't work properly for that matter).

        If any of the developers read this, it might be helpful to give a solid description of which variables work and perhaps why they are so wildly different to the Warrior II (which still works on the simconnect variable). This might be more efficient than each of us submitting tickets that aren't read properly.

          Our support team are sending a replacement WASM gauge to those of you who submitted support tickets for this issue. Once we've confirmed that fixes the issue, we'll update the installer.

            @martyn Hi Martyn. Does the new wasm gauge work for both the Arrow and the Turbo Arrow? i.e. same file?

            John.

              @skeptikantin Hi. Try the simconnect event HEADING_BUG_INC/DEC. This works for me to move the heading big using spad.next.

                @jcallum Brilliant work around (for being a send event only), thanks!!
