Didn't know that about the Hurri's and FW's gear mechanism, though...
On the FW190 that's not a bug. It was an indicator that the wheels were up.
It's a small rod, that shows that wheels are efectively down/up.
There is an anecdote about one of this rods being jammed, and the pilot arriving to wrong conclusions not knowing of this plane problem and executing a belly landing believing that his gear was still up.

Actually it's a nice detail.
