I was talking about the drag effect, not the actual animation of the gear deploying.

IIRC, the game currently models full drag the instant you hit the button to deploy the gear. Flaps certainly work the same way: Full effect for that notch as soon as you hit the button, even if they haven't actually finished deploying.
Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.

Same with the 'landing on wheels' aspect of landing gear, right?  As long as you hit 'G' even an instant before touchdown, it's out and locked.  I wish both flaps and gear coming out took time to occur.
