The video is not accurate on the cycle time because of using the drill motor as the drive component. Although it's a great tool to use for testing the gear cycle, it clearly is not as powerful as the engines to cycle the gear.

![]() In flight today, 76S (T337C with dual hydraulic pumps) retracted and extended the gear with 15 - 19 seconds total cycle time, from handle selection through handle kicking back into the neutral position. That's pretty hard to complain about! :-)
