Problems, problems

Post by bobsk8 »

Took off today on a Pilotedge flight, and climbing out, I hit the gear up switch and didn't hear the normal gear motor sound. I looked at the outside view, and the gear was still in the down position. Thought about aborting the flight because I didn't feel like flying 150 miles with the gear down. Did a Google search "A2A Comanche gear won't retract". 0.3 seconds later, found a post suggesting check the circuit breakers. Checked the gear breaker, and sure enough, it was tripped. Reset breaker, heard the gear retract, and off I went to KOTH. :)

Well its great to hear you having so much fun but you must be one unlucky sim pilot bobsk8 because some of the stuff we know we put in so rare or rely on multiple rare events that the majority of customers won't ever experience the issue but you seem to be hitting a rare, common or average incident every other flight :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Wonder if your chosen airframe is a bit of a used car nightmare type :lol: (Seriously though you can reset just clearing the .dat by using shift + 3 menu).

cheers,
Lewis
