Hinkey Posted October 30, 2022 Posted October 30, 2022 Anybody else having problems with the landing gear not responding to gear handle movement? Having issues both raising and lowering gear. The handle moves but the gear does not. Gear will drop using emergency extension. Still troubleshooting but this is happening on two different computers when the MB339 is dropped into preexisting missions.
Solution Hinkey Posted October 30, 2022 Author Solution Posted October 30, 2022 Found it. For whatever reason, when I place an MB339 in a preexisting mission, it comes in with all three landing gear set to: electrical fault - 100%. 1

I went back to the original file and can't reproduce the issue. I'm sure it was operator error of some sort. It's just odd since I have never once even experimented with failures (don't think I've even clicked on that tab in the mission editor) and suddenly the gear were all selected. Working fine now. Thanks. 1
6S.Duke Posted November 8, 2022 Posted November 8, 2022 Question: did you have lowered the landing gear above 175 kts? If so you have caused a light damage to the landing gear system. If it dropped with the emergency lever it is the only reason I suppose.Inviato dal mio ASUS_I005D utilizzando Tapatalk 1 MB339 EFM Coder Frecce Tricolori Virtuali [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

It is possible I exceeded the gear limits initially since I just jumped in and went flying. I didn't bother to look anything up. If I did overspeed the gear while flying would that somehow program the "Failures" tab in the mission editor? I have not seen that behavior before. When I originally placed the MB-339 in a mission it came in with all three gear preselected to fail electrically (I did not know this at the time, I never look at the "Failures" tab). I don't know how that happened but this appears to be more a mission editor issue for me not one associated with the MB-339. Further experimentation has shown that if I place a new aircraft on the map (of any type) and select a system in the "Failures" tab, all other aircraft on the map now have that failure set, including aircraft of different types which don't even have that system. The programmed failure will occur on all aircraft of the original type on the map. As I said, I have never looked at the "Failures" tab and don't know if this is the correct behavior or not. I don't know how your aircraft ended up with the gear selected, but at least I know how to clear the issue. BTW great job on this aircraft. I'm loving it. Edited November 9, 2022 by Hinkey

I am glad you like it Regarding the preselected tabs, I think it is a mission editor bug. You could open a ticket within the dedicated Mission Editor Bug Reporting forum. Thanks for reporting anyway 1 1 MB339 EFM Coder Frecce Tricolori Virtuali [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
