Retract mechanism does not work in 1.8 or later because it relies on extended deploy limits :/

Full-Stock Retracts!

This plane’s goal was to be a pure stock prop with retractable landing gear. The gear itself is decently reliable at low airspeeds, although (like all stock mechanics) will occasionally break.

Flight Instructions & Action Groups:

Stage to disconnect the props, enable brakes and SAS.
Spin up both props with alt-Q and alt-E.
Release brakes, toggle Flaps (AG3), takeoff.
Press AG2 to open rear gear doors.
Press G to retract gear!
Press AG1 & AG2 to close both doors.
Switch to props and toggle RCS for increased prop pitch.

Notes:

Max speed is ~60m/s ASL.

These props are some of the most reliable I’ve built to date, expect more in the future.
