BTW, it sounds like landings are your focus. Keep in mind that they're actually one of the safest maneuvers to do. That is, if you learn to do one thing that makes them safe.

They can be aborted with almost 100% safety in almost 100% of the attempts. You can't do that on takeoffs. And most flying maneuvers take special corrective moves that you have to know how to do, when to do, and what to do. With landings, if you learn on simple thing, you'll almost always bring the model out safely.

With landings, get one thing into your head..... Whenever ANYTHING about it looks bad, there is no rule that says you can't abort this attempt. Notice that idea has nothing to do with twiddling the sticks?

If anything about your next landing attempt goes wrong, or even feels wrong, teach yourself that it's ok to abort. And abort. Aborting a landing can very safely be done and is dead simple, if you do it before you're in too deep. Move your throttle stick up 4 or 5 clicks and fly up and out. Or heck, jam the throttle and give some up. Ain't nobody keeping score, and you're not going to get a medal for landing "that one time".

Whatever wasn't right on your safely aborted attempt is a real good "starting point" for the next approach. Next time around, fly the airplane so it doesn't go where that previous one went that got you in trouble. And take confidence in knowing that next time, if that one is getting out of whack, it's nothing at all to push the throttle and pull the elevator some. Every flight is "practice" after all.

I had a student who was GOING TO LAND THAT SUCKER no matter what on every attempt. After fixing nose gear and crunched wings and almost everything else, it finally sunk in. After it sunk in, it took him about two flights to learn to land with confidence.
