I have much experience with tailwheel warbird fighters and have come to realize that this is standard procedure. The Bearcat tracked straight and was rolling on the mains instantaneously. With only a 50-foot rollout, the mains broke free from the bonds of gravity and the model was airborne. The Bearcat flies very directionally and, like a bullet, goes where you point it. Extend the gear and flaps.
Good landings come only from stabilized approaches.
The Bearcat landed ever so softly on its mains, as I reduced power when the wheels were just inches off the runway. This model is very stable with the flaps deployed to 30 degrees. Flying full-size planes has taught me to fly models with the same techniques. Whenever you change airspeed, you must change your trim. If you never use the trim knobs, you aren't flying your airplanes as they were meant to be flown.
