Flamin_Squirrel Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 (edited) At the moment, you can leave the L BAR switch in EXTEND, launch from the carrier and retract the gear with no issue - I don't think is correct, as per NATOPs para 2.10.4: Although it doesn't specifically link failure to place the L BAR switch to RETRACT before launch to the L BAR light illuminating RED thereby preventing retraction of the nosewheel, reading between the lines that seems to be what would happen. Hopefully this can be investigated and confirmed in more detailed documentation. Thanks in advance for considering it.

ED Team BIGNEWY Posted April 24, 2020 ED Team Share Posted April 24, 2020 I will move this to wish list, we dont currently have plans for damage due to launch bar, but it should be considered. FYI I deleted the quote from NATOPS please be careful with sharing such information in public. thank you Forum rules - DCS Crashing?

Flamin_Squirrel Posted April 24, 2020 Author Share Posted April 24, 2020 Hi BN. My bad on NATOPS. Just to point out though, damage to the launch bar wasn't what I was raising as a bug: If the L BAR switch isn't moved to RETRACT prior to launch then the nose gear won't retract with the main gear. You'd then have to move the L BAR switch to RETRACT and cycle the gear to get the nose gear to raise. Currently you can leave the L BAR switch set to EXTEND and the gear will retract fine, which it shouldn't, hence it's a bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give me some time and I will take a close look, merged code waiting to happen with super carrier may affect this. thank you Edited April 24, 2020 by BIGNEWY Forum rules - DCS Crashing?

ED Team BIGNEWY Posted April 24, 2020 ED Team Share Posted April 24, 2020 Checked Currently there is no consequence for leaving the bar down, this may change in the future. For now we will leave it as a feature request, it is something we can come back to. thank you Forum rules - DCS Crashing?
