    HELP! Landing Gear won't go up or down!

    Thanks everyone! I did try and hand crank the motor but nothing happened. I checked the bolts on both ends of the shaft that the motor turns and they were in place. I then disassembled the entire landing gear shaft, motor and gear itself. Motor is fine, shaft is fine but the gears in the top...
