The grass is a bit long at our field, I may change field for saving my retracts...
If you look carefuly, Iam not that rough with my dear, the field IS!
I agree that your landing was fine, the grass is just long. That model has a lot of energy to dissipate when landing, and as you know, the faster you dissipate energy the more stress you put on the model. I'm actually a bit surprised that they don't get damaged since I've had a few airplanes that would have required repair after something like that.
What method do you use to mount your retracts? It's nice and sturdy.
EDIT: WOW that is a cool sound in the dives!!
