Left gear won't retract after takeoff

Featured Replies

This issue just started after takeoff left gear won't retract . I have the gear assigned to a button on my warthog. I tried hitting g key and also moving gear lever with mouse. I googled it and found some old post any ideas how to fix?

Thanks,

Tom

Would you happen to have had a gear failure?

I have set in options no failures. I have had 2 out of 3 flights

I assume FSX Advanced Animations is checked because the other gear retracts. Odd, and not every flight.  I'd be looking at your game controller set up because this is a very rare problem.

If it happens in the UK (like virgin) a couple of weeks ago, please divert to somewhere like Stansted, Preswick or Cardiff. Not in Gatwick and then closing it for 5 hours. It kind of messes thing's up for the other airlines operating out of it.
