Another crash in exterior view

I've just done a clean install of XP12, i.e. completely uninstalling and reinstalling from the Steam site. Then I installed and activated the plane (version 1.5.2) and only the plane. I haven't installed anything else. The only changes I've made to the simulator are calibrating the flight controls and lowering the monitor resolution to 1920x1080

After this test (for me definitive) I see that the problem is not in the plugins or add-ons of other developers. The problem is with the plane, either XP12 has it or both. I don't know what it could be, but the truth is that if with a clean installation this fails... We're not doing well.
I corroborate Stephan737's comments, that's the way I see it crashing on my computer.

I will definitively uninstall this aircraft and wait for you or Laminar to provide a solution... if there is one.

I believe that a clean installation should not have this flag in the log.txt - it is used by Laminar Research as a telltale sign that the user has installed or altered something that affects the "inner guts" of the simulator that should never be touched...at his own risk (but probably unknowingly when installing something).

(Art controls are modified.)

Here is the snipped from the settings.txt file that warns users about modifications to it:

You don't believe me.
I haven't installed anything apart from the plane. Absolutely nothing. I've only calibrated the flight controls and lowered the monitor resolution.
If anything has been added that could affect the rendering, it would be reflected in the file I uploaded. I'm not lying.
Again, the problem is with your software, XP12 or both

I resign. But I think it's a pity. I think it's one of the best aircraft (if not the best) currently out there for XPlane

His log shows no addons, but gizmo throwing an error

[Gizmo64]: Dataref 'sim/flightmodel/position/magpsi' has been replaced. Please use the new name.

@eomer

My advice try loading ixeg direct or after a simpler plane like a 172. Trying to load one complex addon after another can crash xplane. Does it to me on many planes.

The CPU is not overclocked. There is only one XMP profile enabled for RAM which gives a lot of stability to the system

But seems you are the only one with this issue, so it not necessarily the plane. Could be many things. Just dont go to external view, different airport... is your pc power supply enough,
