I experienced the same problem when I= had adjusted the outer=0Adoor attached to the landing gear too tight. =0AWhat was happening was the gear would retract a= nd activate the sequence=0Avalve, but the outer door would add some pull do= wn force on the gear because it=0Awas adjusted too tight.&= nbsp; As the hydraulic=0Apressure dropped due to the opening of the = sequence valve, the outer door would=0Apull the strut down just a bit, thus= closing the sequence valve.  Once the sequenc= e valve was closed hydraulic=0Apressure was shut off to the inner gear door= stopping its motion and the gear=0Astrut would retract.&n= bsp; As the gear pulled=0Aup tight the sequence valve would open, st= arting the cycle all over again.

The symptom is that the inner gear = door closes with a jerky=0Amotion.  By lengthe= ning the outer gear=0Adoor links just a bit, the problem went away.
