MattehWizard, landing gear now retracts sideways like the real Corsair. There is a slight wiggle problem but nothing severe.

Kotomka, thank you! This after all was a carrier based plane.

Welp why i builded 2 motored planes if released this update. So this plane would be good for aicraft carier , Nice work :>

Cool. I'll think about it, might make another Korsair with the fancy landing gear system. It was a pain to get the current landing gear to work without the plane face diving due to it being front heavy.

It's just a hinge and i've done it on a tiny plane it isn't bulky and works quite well, also robotic parts don't colide with other parts on the craft, at all.

Or I can use a hinge making the landing gear come up sideways. This would look bulky and aerodynamics would be effected with the landing gear not retracted. If I clip it into the wing, it might cause a Kraken attack.

Servo's would be needed and it would probably look unpleasant. It still needs the landing gears to face forward when taking off and landing. The landing gear will then retract/extend with the servo's activating making it look weird without the intended look.
