While the investigation is ongoing, thanks to data gathered during the flight we were able to narrow down the search. For example, we now understand the issues are not limited to specific regions or locations. With the global release of AAU 02 this week, we’ll have the opportunity to gather data on a larger scale and continue working towards a solution. Thank you to those who helped provide feedback in the Beta.

treated as positive [/list] [h3]KAP140[/h3] [list] [*] Corrected an issue in the default KAP140 template that caused the 100s' knob animation to be applied to both the 100s' knob, and the 1000s'
