LazyBoot Posted June 4, 2022 Posted June 4, 2022 How does one lower the gear in an engine out scenario? The normal gear handle seems to be held stuck. And is therefore unavailable. 1
MYSE1234 Posted June 4, 2022 Posted June 4, 2022 If it's not possible to move it, there should be a lever just below the gear handle that disconnects a lock on it. That is however not modelled, both visually and functionally. So for the moment in DCS, all you can hope for is that it does not come to having to use it. 1 Viggen is love.

Are they at least going to give us a keybind to unlock it? 1
CreepyLP Posted November 1, 2022 Posted November 1, 2022 I am rn in that exact situation. Engine got shot out by a MiG and now I can't drop the damn gear. Coming from the Hornet that is a really stupid thing from my POV
Machalot Posted November 7, 2022 Posted November 7, 2022 This is in the bug tracker thanks to @MYSE1234. "Subsonic is below Mach 1, supersonic is up to Mach 5. Above Mach 5 is hypersonic. And reentry from space, well, that's like Mach a lot."
