Did you do the torque roll in the plane, or sim? It's really a situation where you are practically stalled, and you have to do it just right. I've never had one go past 45degree's in recovery in the aircraft itself, because as you mentioned, the rudder is more than sufficient to control it. Then again, if you got yourself into that situation, your skills would probably suck anyways and that's that.

And as always, anyone with TBM questions I'd be more than glad to answer what I can.
