There should be a big GREEN dob near the wheel down position and a big REDblob near up position AND pilot is taught on turning final to recheck the wheel position as is done always in power. The French introduced that system 30 years ago - it stopped wheels up to such an extent they no longer bother with the green and red.
Tom Gilbert years ago gave an excellent briefing on use of wheel on a glider he was selling to a friend of mine in Victoria. I hate those stupid foil things the factory fit I want colour - not sure how to handle the colour blind pilots Trust me it works - just ask my converts.
