RE: Landing
if the nose gear is hitting first that is all about improper flare/approach. has nothing to do with the main gear legs.
You just need to slow the plane down. but not too much or it will stall and bounce again. My bet is that you are going too slow and what you are getting is a stall just above the runway and it is dropping like a 6 lb rock causing the bounce. your approach should be above stall but still slow enough to land. full scale approach is generally flown at 1.5 times stall speed witht he extra speed bled off in the flare. so try that. fly the approach a little above stall, flare and cut throttle to kill the speed when she begins to settle in towards the runway, let it come down don't fight it but don't force it either. it will land itself your job is to keep the prop out of the dirt. hold the nose but dont fight the sink.
