Problem with raising the aircraft Gear HElp!!

Featured Replies

I bought a new computer and installed FS9.Everything works fine except that I can not raise the Gear using the keyboard key G (letter G). I have gone to the assignmets page and indeed the G is there for raising/lowering the gear train.I re-installed the Simulator but the problem persist.Maybe it has to do something with the FS9.cfg but i do not know where to start.Would appreciate if somebody could give some help in solving this problem.Edmundo CardenasAllienware Area 51 M LaptopP4 3.4 Mhz HT. 1024 Mega RamATI 6000 Pro 128 megas on board2X7300 rpm HD

Is your keyboard set to English and United States 101? This info can be found in your Windows Control Panel.Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Supporthttp://www.hifisim.com/images/as2004proudsupporter.jpg

Default aircraft should work fine if your comp is set up right, but some addon aircraft require hydraulics to raise it...billg

Edmundo,Ok come clean...who departed the aircraft and left the down lock pins in!... :-lol (as real as it gets.. seen it happen in real life. The Airline was not amused.)Sorry, I couldn't resist.Are you exceeding the gear down limit IAS? Does the damage model prevent you from then retracting the gear.Roger

Is your joystick/yoke confliting with the keyboard command? I found that with how I have mine set up Its best if I dont duplicate Keys or Axi.

It is a US (101) Keyboard. I moved temporarily to Atlanta.Thanks for your adviseEdmundo Cardenas

I have not checked that in the damage model. BTW I raise the Gear once I am 500 feet over the runway.Edmundo

I have in the raise/lower gear A on keyboard an buttom 8 on the Joy Stick, but I do not know how to get rid off the Joy Stick set up. in fact my Logitech Wingman extreme only has 7 buttoms plus the Hat.Edmundo
