My first landing was a bit hair raising but it didn't come down hard at all, after that 2 more that were soft as a feather and the pivot bearing broke loose from the spring. I tried to bend it back and thought I might be able to resolder it but the spring broke right across the width where the bearing mounted too it.

I have read of other guys having issues with the tailwheels supplied in the hardware pack so it didn't surprise me when mine went south.
