First - at long last I am delighted that the F33A is updated for XP11. I stopped flying it long ago because HSI lighting was basically nonexistent and I couldn't use it at night. Now all panel lighting is excellent!
Re dropping like a rock upon gear down.
I just downloaded v1.1 for XP11. I am running xp11-50b13
I did my best to set up as Pilot 19 described. At 4,300ft, 15"/2400 level. Airspeed very very slowly crept up to 115kts.
While hand-flying level at above conditions I dropped the gear and maintained level horizon. Airspeed dropped to 95kts and decent settled into 500fpm as best I could see it. This is exactly what I would like to see gear down do - and nothing like "drops like a rock." Maybe give 11.50 a try and see if you get the results I did.
