I fly my little Revolver with an Evolution 61 with stock muffler. It hauls pretty well and lands fairly easily as long as I cut throttle on the downwind leg of landing. I come around pretty much at idle as I turn on final and she glides right in with a small flair at the end. I did try to land it too softly once and she dipped a wing that touched the ground and I tweaked the landing gear, but that was my fault.Just don't try and land it like a trainer and you'll be fine. Fun plane, weak gear since they are fiberglass, and you'll probably fix the fuse where the gear mounts once or twice unless you strengthen it when new. Still tons of fun !!!
