Idle power, speedbrakes up, turn, nose over. Putting the gear down isn't helped by reduced 'g'. You can extend, but better to get down quickly. Accelerating will produce a whopping descent, with the gear down, it will be difficult to get speed up without excessively steep body angles- tried it in the sim. I think better to leave the gear alone- something to forget down in a shaken-up situation!
You seem to be doing a tech course with holes in it!
