I use the <actuator> in JSBsim to model the gear in the SenecaII, using the rate_limit property implement the transit time. The flightgear autopilot system has a so called noise-spike filter that can model transit times. The flightgear xml based autopilot system can run at FDM rate or at frame rate, btw. Using a <autopilot> tag in your aircraft's -set.xml adds the autopilot at fdm rate, using a <property-rule> runs the same config at frame rate.
