Default Dazzler Landing Problem

Agreed, the Dazzler should be able to land at walking (or even crawling) speeds, with very little rollout. You may be landing too fast. While faster wheel landings on this model look cool, but sudden jerks on the elevator will cause the big wing to get some air under it, 3 points work better, this model is very good at spot landings due to it's stall excellent characteristics. I went with 3" DBP foamy lightweight wheels. I think that Tower has 2.5" recommended in their manual, but I'd highly recommend 3" if you're flying off grass (purely for prop clearance purposes).
