The only real simulators I have flown are C-130 Hercules and JAS 39C and E Gripen, and the latter two did absolutely not behave like the former when the gears were out :laugh:, neither did the DCS Viper. Actually, to be honest, I didn´t notice any difference even though I knew there should be one. But I only popped out the gear when I was on finals when I flew yesterday, so I never had to do any violent turns.
So I can´t really say if you´re wrong or right.
