Has anyone else had problems with this release where the elevator gets jammed all the way down (like 90 degrees to the ground), sending the aircraft into an uncontrollable dive? This has happened to me a few times and it is super annoying. I am using the Noble Flight Sim side yoke hardware if that makes any difference.

Our plugin doesn't do anything with the flight controls - that's all native X-Plane. There shouldn't be any way for the control surfaces to get pushed beyond the limits with properly interfaced hardware.

I haven't seen this issue before, but I've seen some issues with the Noble Yoke regarding sensitivity and control positioning. Perhaps the yoke is sending X-Plane improper calibration data. I'd recommend recalibrating the Noble Yoke, and if that doesn't fix it, contact their support.

Thanks @Coop, I did some further investigation and I think it turned out to be a weird interaction between the Noble autopilot and the TS autopilot both fighting each other.

Another question -- have you ever seen the GFC700 autopilot struggling to keep up with the flight director bars, and as a result scalloping around a couple of hundred fpm in turns?

I haven't seen that behavior, my guess is it might correlate with the prior issue?

Thanks @coop. I found a forum post that suggested increasing the X-Plane Flight Models Per Frame, and I increased that to 4 and it seems to have largely solved the problem. It did look like there was something quite laggy going on, which is weird as I'm getting 60fps in X-Plane.

I can’t stop the sr22 or sr22t from rolling left when I release the controls.  After I trim the pitch for level flight and let go it slowly starts to bank left ~5 degrees and starts to slowly descend.  I press 9 repeatedly to try to reset the aileron trim but it doesn’t work.  Any suggestions?

Hey @Coop, my previous fix to this problem seems to no longer be working. There is now a 1-2 second lag between the flight director bars and the autopilot bars which makes the autopilot really wobbly. Do you have any suggestions as to how I could fix this? I am using the Noble hardware in bypass model if that makes any difference.

I'm on an i7 CPU with 1080 graphics card getting ~45fps with all the graphics settings turned down low, if that makes any difference. If there's an official Torquesim support forum please feel free to direct me there!

We can't replicate this on our end. I'm guessing as you guessed earlier some conflict is going on between the SR22 and the Noble hardware, you could test this by removing their hardware and plugin from the sim to test and see if you can still replicate the issue.
