What a great tutorial! Thank you so much, Mark! I'm coming to Blender from Maya and Houdini and this was extremely helpful in migrating my knowledge. You example was very thorough and covers many practical use-cases. I love that you grounded the tutorial in a real-world example of the landing gear, rather than something theoretical, since it covers many ancillary concerns such as the springs, the pistons and the hydraulic lines. Excellent work, Mark! Your attention to detail is spectacular! It shows even the the way you've modeled the parts. You've got yourself a new subscriber. I'm looking forward to more!

Very useful and informative tutorial. I wish it had come out months ago when I was rigging the landing gear on my He-162. The only mistake I could see was the pivot point of the upper piston is in the wrong place. It should be centered on the bolt hole that anchors the upper piston.

It is very good animation tutorial, thanks for it. One small thing, normal condition the nose landing gear does not retract directly. First, the shock strut should be extended fully (which shows the aircraft on weight off wheel configuration) and then nose landing gear should retracted. The animation is look like someone operate the landing gear when the aircraft on ground.
