Hi Folks,
I'm just about finished designing an aircraft in FSDS but I'm stuck with a
problem I can't figure out. The aircraft in question has main gear that
retracts inwards by 90 degrees (no problem) but the main gear doors need to
retract by about 155 degrees. Can anybody help me sort this one out. ANY help
appreciated.
Thanks

It's trial and error with motion sequences. You can try something like this:
(and I could be wrong)

0-80:2;80-100:0
or
0-10:0;10-90:2;90-100:0
or
0-20:0;20-100:2

I suggest building your doors in the up position and reversing the Z axis.
