A disclosed method extends a support system for a maglev vehicle, the support system having at least a first landing gear assembly and a second landing gear assembly. The method includes the steps of determining a weight-on-wheels status for each of the first and the second landing gear assemblies and determining a distance from each of the first and second landing gear assemblies to a support surface. First and second extension speeds are determined for each of the first and second landing gear assemblies, respectively. The first landing gear assembly is extended at the first extension speed until the first landing gear assembly reaches a weight-on-wheels condition, and the second landing gear assembly is extended at the second extension speed until the second landing gear assembly reaches the weight-on-wheels condition.
A method of extending a support system for a maglev vehicle, the support system comprising a first landing gear assembly and a second landing gear assembly, the method comprising the steps of:
A vehicle, comprising:
A non-transitory computer-readable medium having computer-executable instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution by one or more controls unit of a vehicle, cause the one or more control units to perform actions comprising:
