For some reason, every time I start a flight, the landing gear handle is up and the external view shows the gear partially retracted.
I have to open the maintenance page, access the gear to put the plane up on pegs, then turn on the battery to get the gear to properly lower. Then close the maintenance gear access and proceed as normal.
I have ensured that shutdown is always done correctly. All other switches and controls stay in the same location I leave them in shutdown, except the gear.
Has anyone else experienced this? It's getting annoying to go through the process at the start of each new flight.
