Dave is right on the money. With full flaps on this model I have to hold a bit of down elevator and have a good bit of power on to land smoothly. That's with no wheel covers, and I'm not sure if that adds or reduces drag. But he's 100% correct, the model flys so slow that most people simply can't believe it's still flying. Once I have a good rate of descent on the landing, I usually don't have to change the elevator deflection. I use bursts of throttle to extend the glide path and am able to set it down where I want pretty much every time on the mains and have very little bounce unless I try to bring it down too fast and hit hard.
With full flaps, you will need power, chopping the throttle will not provide good results.
