For me most problems has been solved with the 1.3 patch.

The Flightdirector has never worked as it should. This was also the case for the FS9 version. It has been reported back then, but never rectified.

The C-130 X is now flyable for me, but there are still issues:

-Flight director doesn´t work correctly, it simply works like an ils/vor indicator.
-I still need to load the 2D hydraulic panel for the VC hydraulic light to become functional.
- the 2D start buttons doesn´t work, but I can start via the VC start buttons.

All in all the 1.3 patch is the best until now, but this doesn´t mean that it is perfect.
