Please post a log.txt file. (Found in the root X-Plane folder.)

If you received a response, you should get an email from support shortly. It depends on how busy it is. Keeping mind, with self quarantine going on, a lot more people are home and flying X-Plane.

Thanks for reminding me how old I am. A lot has happened in the last decade. It's no secret that Jim, who was coding the Citation, was hired by Laminar soon after the Saab was done. It's a guaranteed income working on X-Plane. I don't know any developer who would say no to that. I decided to work on a new version of the C23, DC3, (including the mobile version), Saab 340 and get up to speed on PBR workflows, which included learning how to UV map and texture 3D mesh. Prior to the Saab, I had no clue how to do this. And then the TBM 900 project fell on my "virtual desk" at the beginning of 2018. Back then, when we were working on the Citation, we didn't think demand for the Saab would be what it is. There is an overwhelming response to get it upgraded to XP11+ standards. So, to cut it short, will it be finished? We want it to be finished, and we plan to get it finished. But it all depends on Jim's and my schedules. I still have 3D model and textures. ETA? We stopped giving out ETA's a few years ago. Simply because when we do, they always backfire on us. However, I'm hoping that in the meantime, the CL650 I'm working on will give the bizjet fans their bizjet fix.

Easy to confirm. Disconnect all your hardware and reload X-Plane. If the Power Lever behaves, it's confirmed the problem lies with your hardware.

Many thanks for the comments and compliments. Regarding the crash, yes, this definitely sounds like that bug. To avoid it, make sure you're established before switching. A fix will be sent in the next update.

I've seen this happen before to some other people. This is happening because something got assigned to the mixture or power controls controls (although I think it was mixture). Please check your assignments or any scripts you may have and that they are not overriding anything in the TBM.

Are you running any scripts that may be interfering with the Autopilot?

The default keys for this are F1 (Throttle down a bit) and F2 (Throttle up a bit). Try those and see how you go.

Enjoy.

The fewer the bars, the lower the AoA. In normal cruise, 1 green bar is optimal AoA. While in the green, the aircraft will not stall, and you will not get a warning. While in the yellow bars, a stall is approaching/imminent. Red bars indicate the aircraft is stalling and action needs to be taken to recover.

We're trying to figure out what's going on. Just bear with us for the time being. It appears this has happened to a few people, but it is not something in the TBM. As soon as we figure out what is happening, we'll post back.

Can you post a screenshot of what you are seeing? (And there is no need for the all CAPS in your thread title)

Not really sure what's causing this, because we've never come across it before. Can you try reinstalling?

That's an interesting one. I'll see what I can do.

Can you record a short video, or take a series of screenshots of what is happening so we can get a clear idea of what is going on? Video would be preferred.

If the bar keeps coming down, it means the TBM is not activated. If you are having trouble activating, please contact X-Aviation support.

First thing's first. We need to take a look at your log file. Also, with a beta, anything is possible, but here are some things to consider. How many plugins do you have installed? An X-Plane beta, while it may not affect the TBM, MAY affect other plugins to the point they will slow the sim down considerably. I have just tried the TBM in the latest beta, and there is no slowing down on the TBM. So the problem on your version lies elsewhere. To nail this down, could you post your log file and a screenshot of the TBM with the FPS counter displayed on screen. The counter has other information that will help in finding out what is happening.

We're still trying to figure this out, because it shouldn't be freezing on you. Did you try loading at a different airport. Our test airport is SCIP. Can you try loading there and doing a few circuits to see if this behaviour repeats itself? I have the same GPU as yourself, and I am not getting any of this behaviour, so this is definitely something in your install.

Unknown at this point.

This is a known issue with X-Plane and the TBM. You're getting an error that is consistent with having AI turned on. Please turn AI off. We're trying to figure out why this error is occurring, because it only happens with the TBM, but the TBM does not use exception handlers (which is the error that is being thrown up in your case.) I think Just Flight have come out with new traffic software, and we provided them with a copy of the TBM. Apparently, there are no crashes with that software. So it appears it's something external to the TBM that only gets triggered when the TBM is running.
