Righty wheel stuck

Post by Jason210 »

Hi

Just ported over the B-17 to P3D v3 and I've not had any problemos yet but on the last flight the right wheel didn't want to come up. Earlier, when I started the scenario, the aircraft kind of dropped on to the runway (like they do) and burst a tire, so it was off to the hanger immediately to replace it and there I noticed the gear mechanism on that side was damaged also so I replaced that too.

So all should have been well on take off but after rotate a crewman said "The right gear is not moving". After flying a few miles I hadn't figured out what to do with it so I turned round and came back. I was able to lower the other wheel and land, and went straight off to the hangar to check it all out, but there was no indicated problem so was a bit puzzled and came away wondering if it were a problem caused by the port.

Anyone know know what's going on. I haven't flown this bird for a long time so I may be missing something...

Cheers
Jason

Is your crew able to manually raise the gear?
