Landing Gear Question

[StevieC]

Whenever I launch a rocket, the controls say that its landing-legs are extended. Is there a way to start with the landing legs retracted and have them show as retracted?

StevieC,

Afraid not. Whatever you launch will show the landing gear deployed in the annunciator. If you hit G, it'll read correct.

Best,

I believe this is because aircraft landing gear require the controls to be set to "extended" (or any extended gear, for that matter) in order to be extended on launch.

A quick hit of "G", as Slashy said, will fix the problem.
