This may not help but I recently had this issue with the IXEG 737 and the problem was that I had a new version of XPUIPC. I had to install an older version of XPUIPC and then it worked. No idea why. Maybe a Gizmo issue?

Yes, I downgraded by XPUIPC to an older version and the throttles now are working. Is this something that will be fixed by IXEG in a future update? I haven't had this issue with any other aircraft and I am now getting an XPUIPC error message. John.

Thanks. I will try that. (But I hate dumbing down my machine!)

Autothrottle is off. Throttles are dead when I load the plane cold and dark. Could this have anything to do with my version of XPUIPC? (I have the latest version.) John.

Just installed v1.3. Everything seems to work ok except for the throttles which don't move - either using the mouse or the throttle quadrant. Log attached. Am using 11.50b9 with Vulkan and beta of Gizmo. John Log.txt

I haven't flown the IXEG 737 for years. I can't even remember why I stopped flying it. BUt very happy to hear that you have an update in progress. I will certainly do the update and give it a try. (I used to fly it a lot.) John.

Thanks Coop. Look forward to the update. John

I can confirm this behaviour, John Log.txt

To fly in formation you don't need multiplayer. Just log in to the same network (VATSIM, PilotEdge, etc.) at the same airport and fly. With multiplayer you both fly the same plane (e.g. pilot/copilot) by both signing on to the same network with the same callsign. Then you can both control the same plane. But perhaps I misunderstood your issue. John

Thanks Coop. I now remember that I had this problem before. My bad. John.

I reinstalled the aircraft but got the same result. Here is the log. I am running 11.50b4. Hopefully, that is not the issue. John Log.txt

I just installed the FMOD patch and now I am seeing the pilot and passengers within the cockpit view. How can I get rid of them? John.

I don't think so. Just create a new airframe. (Buy a new plane.) What's a game error? John.

No I don’t. It has always popped up automatically for me after reinstallation. I think that you should submit a ticket. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I think that this is an activation issue. The plane is not activated. Sent from my SM-G960W using Tapatalk

Great. Thanks. Sent from my SM-G960W using Tapatalk

Well I am hoping that I can just assign some joystick buttons in native XP. For me the simplest solution is always better. I am trying not to use FWL as I find it affects my frame rate and not in a good way. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Yes I have Spad.Next but my problem is accessing the right side of the h - the cutoff and low idle detentes. I think I got the answer above. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Thanks. That’s what I was looking for! John Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I currently use the mouse to move the throttle on the right side of the h configuration- to introduce fuel on start, etc. However, I would like to get away from using the mouse and keyboard. Is there a way to use a button to get the throttle to work on the right side of the h? Can I use a different axis (mixture?) for that side? John. Sent from my SM-G960W using Tapatalk

Not sure but I think that is a product activation issue. Sounds like the aircraft is not activated. John.

Ok. Solved my problem. My Saitek throttle had some screwy button assignments. Appears to be working ok now.

I have just downloaded and installed a fresh TBM900 into a fresh X-Plane 11.36. I have loaded and initialized the aircraft. However, the throttle gate doesn't appear to be operating and the prop governor is failing before I even start the engine. I have tried loading a new airframe but the same problems occur. I have assigned a button to 'toggle thrust reversers' but it doesn't appear to work. The throttle never goes into flight idle but directly into Taxi Range. What can I be doing wrong. I never experienced this problem with my previous version of the TBM. Log file attached where you can see the prop governor failing. John. Log.txt

Yes, I guess I will have to do that. Its too bad we don't have some better diagnostic tools. However, I guess its the nature of the beast.

Yes, I have seen many people fly the TBM on Pilotedge. And it worked for me on Pilotedge until a few months ago. Something changed and now it crashes. The problem is that the sim is now a very dynamic environment with things changing every day. I have a pretty "vanilla" system - Windows 64 bit, pretty standard addons, etc. Perhaps I should do a fresh install of x-plane 11. Until I isolate the problem I will have to fly other aircraft on the network. If you can think of anything I can try to isolate the problem, please let me know. Thanks for your help. John.
