It’s not at a set altitude, it’s usually just after the pilots say “positive rate” - meaning a positive rate of climb is identified.

The answer is in the title, when you’ve verified positive rate.

5-10 seconds after takeoff

When you the aircraft is gaining speed and climbing stably

Just as many others have said just as you establish your positive rate of climb which is generally around 3-5 seconds after takeoff, you will retract the gear.

I usually do it when I’ve reached a speed an altitude where I’m around 80% sure I won’t stall, and if I do, I’m far enough from the ground to recover.

keep spamming the gear button until it retracts ig
