I've tried them all but they all return 0.

sim/cockpit2/controls/gear_handle_down

sim/cockpit/switches/gear_handle_status

sim/multiplayer/position/plane1_gear_deploy

sim/multiplayer/controls/gear_request

The data output works and if I issue a command I can toggle the value, but none of the datarefs above return anything other than 0...

Im working on an upgrade for a professional sim (we have 4 pro x11 licences). Need this functionality to work as its a fully integrated cockpit. Otherwise I will have to come up with a hacky solution that monitors acf_gear_deploy and the hardware switch and only issues the toggle command once correctly (since none of the datarefs work for toggling gear either). Issuing multiple commands crashes x11, so I cant just keep sending commands until the deploy ratio is correct.
