Default P-15 MUSTANG

I wasn't sure where to post this question so Ill take a shot in here.

First of all I didnt know real flight G2 had two planes with flaps [X(]

But anyway my question is why is it so hard to land the P-15 Mustang on the real flight simulator ? I tried numerous times and I always bounce then crash , I also have the flaps down when comming in to keep the plane from nose diving. I just dont get it . Please leave some tips for if you dont mind. Im really thinking about buying this plane next.

yeah i have the same problem but all you have to do is not use so much flaps and grease it in.

First of all, it's "P-51" Mustang, not P-15.

The Mustang is pretty easy to land in G2 with some practice. Use full flap and come in with a fairly steep approach with the throttle between 1/4 and 1/2. Use the throttle to control the descent. When the plane is a couple of feet above the runway, reduce the throttle and gently flare. You must come in under power. Otherwise, the plane will drop and bounce.

Biplanes and Triplanes, such as Tigermoth and Fokker Dr.1, are harder to land in G2.

Thanks Fletch and Richard. I just finished attempting to land the P-51 but could not do it I dont know, maybe I just need to practice .

Sorry for typing 9-15 I was rushing and made a mistake.

Eventually you will be able to land it. I took me a good 45 minutes or so of practicing before I was able to do it. Pretend it's your real 1/5th scale Mustang out at the field.
