Gear extended above maximum speed

Featured Replies

Hello,I fly on Cessna 310 and the message "Gear extended above maximum speed" appears every time I move gear.On properties/limits, max-gear-extension-speed is set at 140.No dramatic but on replay, the message still on screen on 10 lines.How can I remove this message or change parameter to remove it ?ThanksPierre

ur gear will go up automatically once you reach a certaint speed. When you try to bring it down above that, the plane will reject it.

Hello AA147,I use 0.9.10 version.Usualy, I retract and extend gear below 100 knots with Cessna 310I try that:1- Short take off 60 knotsDon't retract gearReach 170 knotsGear stay down2- Set properties/limits/max-gear-extension-speed at 100Don't retract gearTake off and reach 160 knotsGear stay downApperently, auto-gear doesn't work.3- Short take off retract gear at 65 knotsMessage appear4- Landing extend gear at 70 knotsMessage appearSomething is wrong, but where ?Thanks

This is a bug that's fixed in the development version. You can easily apply this patch to your own copy of $FG_ROOT/Aircraft/Generic/limits.nas. Just replace the "-" line (around line 55) by the "+" line (the other lines are just to show the context):@@ -55,7 +55,7 @@ checkFlaps = func { checkGear = func { airspeed = getprop("velocities/airspeed-kt");- max_gear = cmdarg().getValue();+ max_gear = getprop("limits/max-gear-extension-speed"); if ((max_gear != nil) and (airspeed > max_gear)) {

Work well.Thank you mfranz A+Pierre
