General Question Universal Cargo Deck and Scenario Creation Question

[Usquanigo]

I'm trying to use the UCD to mount 1 small plane on the back of another larger one.

I got this to work. Got UCD linked to the host plane, got the cargo mounted where I wanted and oriented the way I want, everything's golden. Except..... I can't get it to start the scenario with the cargo's wheels up. They are always down and I have to change to the cargo to raise them then go back to the host plane.

Is there any way to make it so that the gear are up at the beginning of the scenario automatically?

One thing that might be of interest... I'm trying to carry a T-38, but I can't select it from the Scenario Editor "new" list, nor from the UCD payload manager. I had to manually edit in the T-38 by copying and pasting from a T-38 .scn file into the one I'm working with, then, with it already in there, I was able to select it as being the cargo.

I did try adding gear 0 0.000 (or however it goes) line to the T-38 section, but that didn't make any difference.

You could modify the T-38 in a 3D program to raise the gear.

So in otherwords, no then?

I had a feeling, but thought there was some trick I was missing. It's not a big deal, I can raise it manually before the flight (or on quick-save resumes). Just would have liked to make that work automatically.
