Goran, I didn't have any luck with PlaneMaker, but I think I may have found a solution. There is an X-Plane dataref called "sim/flightmodel/engine/ENGN_TRQ:0" that has a numerical value that increases with torque. Using SPAD.neXt, I set up a condition when that dataref exceeds 3035 which coincides with 101% torque, it sets off the fire warning bell. Not realistic, I know, but it definately gets your attention. I set this up at Courchevel airport, facing uphill, halfway up runway 21 with full fuel; parking brakes set; and chocked. I kept jumping the chocks at 100% torque on a level airport. Not sure how this will work at different altitudes. However, I'm about to find out. Rick S

Problem resolved by upgrading os to Catalina... Thanks for all the help.

Glad you're enjoying the plane. All of the sidebar options are accessible from the Plugins menu, which should be available via your VR controller. So under Plugins > TBM900. Moreover, both chocks and GPU can be set & unset via clickspots right at the appropriate location on the aircraft model. Simply get out of the cockpit and come up to the GPU door on the left-hand side of the nose, click the door and that connects the GPU. Similarly, walk up to either one of the main landing gear and you should have a clickspot right over where the chocks are to place & remove them:
