| Documented highlights | A detailed documentation summary has not been added yet. | A detailed documentation summary has not been added yet. | A standalone Caravan with several working configurationsBlack Square's Caravan Professional is a standalone aircraft, distinct from its earlier Analog Caravan expansion. The manual describes wheeled, cargo and amphibious configurations, a new exterior and cabin model, sounds and interactive aircraft features. Its analogue cockpit and systems form a different product from both the bundled glass-cockpit Grand Caravan and an instrument-panel replacement for it. | Configuration and flight-model developmentThranda's Caravan development includes configurable avionics and changes to its X-Plane flight model. The published history records trim balance, propeller drag, G1000 pitch-button behaviour, landing-gear springiness and stall-warning calibration changes. The release number is useful context when comparing observations about this particular Caravan. |
