You will have no problems with the P-120 on this plane... you will love it. Flying it at 60% throttle is typical... 100% is only used at takeoff or for vertical pushes. My landing procedure in this plane is no flaps and 1 or 2 gear inspection flybys over the landing strip to set the proper visual approach speed (about 50 % throttle), based on the current wind condition... Then reducing it to about 30% on the final ramp approach chopping the power just before the plane reaches the runway heading.Pull the nose of the plane up as much as you can at touchdown.. it won´t tip stall.
Just pay attention on the nose up angle of the plane.. if the nose gets up too high on the landing approach you will need a lot of power.. the plane has lot´s of drag in this condition.
Good luck with it,
Enrique
