Not since the second flight, but Beesley should take it up soon.

How was the second flight, haven't heard any news of this.
Did it fly with gear up yet?

It was a typical test flight.

The flight plan that was flashed up on the TeamJSF stream during first flight indicated they were going to cycle the gear at that time. I was surprised at that, but there has been a lot of LG testing done since AA1, so I guess some confidence in the system would not be too shocking. I have no idea if they actually cycled the gear or not.
