Landing gear and NWS issues
-
Hi, I’m still completing training missions at the moment but I had an issue on my last flight where after take off the landing gear failed to retract. I checked hydraulic pressure for A & B and it seemed normal. Is this a failure that is modelled? In addition I also have trouble getting NWS to work after landing. This is every flight. Love this Sim by the way nothing comes close in the emersion stakes.

Probably too fast. Get it up in the first 50’ of climbout well short of 300 knots. Damaged gear may fail to engage NWS.

Or maybe you activate the wrong handle (the emergency gear handle instead of the normal gear). In that condition, the gear will not retract if the handle is not reset, and the NWS will not work.

I’m pretty sure I’m getting it up before 300kts. As soon as I’m airborne I retract gear. Maybe my x52 is just getting old but this has never happened before.

I may have accidentally played with that this time when trying to sort out why I couldn’t engage NWS. Thanks.
