I'm sorry, which slat issue are we talking about?

Oh, so you dont know it? I reported it at beginning but in MSFS Forum and it was noted here. Ok.

Model has slats issue (I think animation maybe is ok, because I see that slots can hide completely in 3D model) but during the flight the slats are always extended, regardless of their position, more or less but they are open always. In real life, the position of the slats depends on the Angle of Attack during the flight (so also of the airplane speed and wind too), when AoA is close to zero or negative (straight flight or descending), the slots do not deflect at all and are exactly on the wing line. This is not possible in the model and in the MSFS environment, so something has been implemented wrong.

3D model - is possible:

Real life (from 7:22):

The model in MSFS:

c895916e48cbe010e7a76ab37ef31bb2aa7bd01e

This is dive, so they should be completely hidden, they should have the precise line of the wing. Unfortunately, something is badly encoded and they do not hide completely, although as you can see in the first picture, it is possible in the 3D model.

Dear Devs,

the slats should, like in the Bf-109, drop out completely as soon as the critical aoa is reached. In the sim right now it seems more like a slow and greasy movement.

 

Thank you!

It also is possible to completly retract the slats in flight. It is dependant on your AOA as it is in the real aircraft.

Maybe you have dev version 😄. Its impossible on my 1.0.1, see this:

direct straight flight, speed 270km/h, AoA = 0

AoA = minus, dive, speed 340km/h

still the pressure does not hide the slats

I am not sure if there is an interim position. They are supposed to extend above a certain AOA and snap back into Up position as soon as you're below it.

Operation of those is really light, you can push them in with a thumb on the ground. Some pilots of the 109 report to even hear a distinct "Clonk" when they extend or retract.

Nope, not a dev version. I`m using the live 1.0.1 version 🙂

As Marko said, its operation is really light, it's hard to achive but definitely possible.
