Retracting wheels before completely off the ground locks stituation to Landed #74

If you raise your gear while your wheel collider is still touching the ground during takeoff (inadvisable) and you manage to get in the air anyways (difficult), you will be Landed during the entire flight.

This means you cannot collect atmospheric science. retract gear will produce dust particles, and the screen will be jittery the whole time like you're on the ground going XXX m/s.

Thanks for the report. This definitely sounds like a serious issue that will need to be addressed for the next release.

If you could include any additional steps needed for reproduction it might help; I don't think a log file would be needed in this case.

It's pretty straightforward to reproduce: retract gear after you've rotated off the runway but before all 3 wheels are off the ground. It's easier with a tricycle than a tail dragger.
