Wheels no longer fully retract

[Ian Boys UK]

After take off, the wheels won't come up beyond the position shown. Not overspeeding. 

Every time the same. The tube in the cockpit shows full retraction.

You should probably post a track, i just now checked and it still works correctly on my end.

Thanks for the track, just took a quick look, and the problem is that the gear is not ready to be retracted when you start cranking the handle.

For gear up, 3 controls need to be in the correct position, but you only set one of them:

- Gear lock (handle in the front): forward (yours was back)
- Gear direction (the "middle" handle): up (yours was correct in the up position)
- Brake spring handle (the handle in the back): forward (yours was back)
