That RTT bug is really annoying. i'm very confident update 1 will fix the issue and hopefully update 1 is not too far away
You don't have to close them via Taskmanager.Just right click on that icon down in the taskbar and make the Shutdown RTTClient.I know you don't like to hear that but It's written in the MANUAL!

I’m feared to maintain this configuration. At the moment I’m using a CAN8 Relay from Polabs, 12V relays version. Attached 5 magnets for Autopilot, parcking brakes and JFS 1 & 2. Then these 2 solenoids, 12 V. Any suggestion?Hi @BlackEagle88 Your relay should only be active when:1. Your gear is down and no WOW . So right after you have lifted off and WOW disabled.2. In the air when your gear is up and you push the permission button3. After you lowered your gear in the air (same as 1)The real gear handle have the same issue with getting hot and burning out. This usually happens if pilots play with the permission button or have the gear down for too long. I added a electronic card to my gear panel which will trigger the solenoid at the full volt, then lower the voltage to keep the solenoid engaged.See this post:http://www.viperpits.org/smf/index.php?topic=11400.msg175640#msg175640

When in air gear gear handle can be rised up without pressing the white button cause there is no shaft hole wher the shaft can insert and block movement.The only one solenoid that needs this special card is WOW, cause it stays active for a longer time. This is for my LG at least..Anyway I ordered the board, will let you know when arrives
