Thanks 3Dflight,
The updates are good to know.
I have another video of this Corsair flying.
http://youtu.be/TLZDE_2ci9c
I did not know I was being filmed and it is a little long.
This was seven days ago and I have since had better landings.
Please reply with any advice in landings.
On the video you can see I only had half flap and I believe I trying to land to slow.
Today I'm going to try to use full flaps and land with some power on.
I can tell you that my better landings have been once the wheels touch the ground I immediately neutralize the elevator.
That stops all the bouncing and the rollout is smooth. However I still need power all the way up to the point the wheels touch the ground.
