stray cat Posted September 17, 2014 Posted September 17, 2014 How to retract the gears? I unlocked it with the smaller lever then pulled the lever stick to the up position, wont retract.
BeachAV8R Posted September 17, 2014 Posted September 17, 2014 (edited) RShift G (releases gear safety lock) G (cycles gear UP) LCtrl G (puts gear switch in neutral to preserve air) LShift G (gear down) Ah..takes me back to the Falcon nosewheel steering days.. :D BeachAV8R Edited September 17, 2014 by BeachAV8R 1
SimFreak Posted September 17, 2014 Posted September 17, 2014 Remove lock pin - move gear handle in desired position - wait for safe indication lights - move gear into neutral position
Dolphin887 Posted September 17, 2014 Posted September 17, 2014 If you broke the 600km/h IAS before you tried to raise the gear, gears will "brake" (no more movements). Raise them below 600km/h. Same goes for extraction. Training missions are nice, you might want to try few. Power through superb knowledge, training and teamwork. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Eldur Posted September 17, 2014 Posted September 17, 2014 Training missions are nice, you might want to try few. Just curious as I'm still waiting for my DCSW download to finish, is it voiced over?
Call911 Posted September 17, 2014 Posted September 17, 2014 (edited) :lol::thumbup:Go chase that White Rabbit :D first flite was rather less nitemarish than I expected. I tried to retract the gear also but heard some thuds on my (so so) takeoff think maybe i damaged em so. Edited September 17, 2014 by Call911
stray cat Posted September 17, 2014 Author Posted September 17, 2014 I was using the procedure, but gears got damaged probably because of a bouncy take off. Training missions are not a good idea, because fps suck so bad. In the first training mission my fps drops to 15 in the cockpit just because there is an mi24 taking off near. I get 35-50 on an empty map.

Four of us were stretching all over the place to get it prepared as much as possible. With no resources we could not afford additional personnel to take care of the voicing the missions and campaign. Now that would be really cool... Power through superb knowledge, training and teamwork. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

Grim_Smiles Posted September 18, 2014 Posted September 18, 2014 :D I guess screw me for not looking here or reading the manual first before I took off in the 21, maybe my first flight would have been longer. Takeoff wasn't a problem though the shaking did make me think I was going to wreck at any moment. Of course my gear didn't go up. Kept hitting G to raise it. I figured there was a lever I had to hit before raising the gear. Because I didn't RTFM I didn't know which lever to hit and just started clicking on things near the gear indicator. Well I never found the lever to unlock the gear but I did find out which one I shouldn't hit during flight: "Hurled headlong flaming from the ethereal sky; With hideous ruin and combustion down; To bottomless perdition, there to dwell; In adamantine chains and penal fire" (RIG info is outdated, will update at some point) i5 @3.7GHz (OC to 4.1), 16GB DDR3, Nvidia GTX 970 4GB, TrackIR 5 & TrackClip Pro, TM Warthog HOTAS, VKB T-Rudder Mk.IV, Razer Blackshark Headset, Obutto Ozone

Nielis Posted September 18, 2014 Posted September 18, 2014 Gear won't retract Hi Guys, First of all congrats with this amazing aircraft. I really enjoy flying it. I have a problem with my gear. When I'm spawning on the runway to fly I can't retract my gear after take off. The handle moves up but no actual gear retraction. Does anybody has the same problem? Strange enough it works fine during the training missions. My Pictures at: http://vortex-images.com/

WinterH Posted September 18, 2014 Posted September 18, 2014 Funnily, this turned out to be "first time get it right" endevaour for me, unlike my long search for NWS key in Falcon :D. May be NWS has been a good teacher for me to adopt RTFM motto :D Landing gear works fine for me, but I can't for the life of me, line myself up with the runway to make use of them, just can't see the runway. So far, landing attempts : 3, go arounds : 3 :P time to learn using that RSBN & PRMG I guess.
