The model XML in the base package is still pointing at
/controls/gear-down for its input.  You need to modify the rotation
entries to look at /gear/gears[n]/position-norm.  The flap position is
also smoothly animated if you use /surface-positions/flap-pos-norm,
too.

I'm sure David will get all of this tied together soon.

Also, I think the right aileron deflection is reversed in the model
file.  When the stick is held to the right, YASim reports a left
aileron deflection of 1.0 and a right deflection of -1.0.  But on the
model, both of them deflect downward.  We need to decide on a
convention for which deflection is positive, and whether or not to
negate one side.
