These light weight 3D type planes tend to like a nice gentle landing as they are not normally built as strong as a conventional sport plane, because they are built for light weight. I would think that if you are confident with your landings the ucando would make a great second plane with low rates as they have such low stall speeds and as you progress you can just up the rates and bring the c of g further back, besides you could always stengthen the landing gear if you wish, just my views Cougar.
