RE: Final approach.
That is all good advice. I have made about 10 landings now, and have broken 7 props. It finally clicked during my 8th landing that I was flaring way too high. I guess I was so paranoid that the plane was going to pancake into the ground that I started using my elevator way too soon. When the time came to actually need the elevator, I had no more to give it and my plane would just fall to the ground from about a foot or two high. My last 3 landings a did not break any props, I waited untill about a foot off the ground and started slowly giving the plane some up elevator. It is a strange feeling watching that plane just "fall" to the ground knowing that you have to "catch" it. (I suppose it will take me awhile to get over that feeling). It worked out quite well, In fact the plane actually lands just as I'm about out of elevator. I have not solo'd yet (still have the buddy cord), but I thought I would share my experience.
