Made a post about the j10 landing problem, and i got a bunch of responses that helped me none, this is in response to those tips i got.
Did what some told me but this is to show that you have to be ALOT more specific when telling somebody something like this.

Apparently the ONLY way to land the j-10 is to go in fast and hit the brakes at the very end. Iv been told to go in at 40 percent, actually 35 by others.

I did that, but i drop out of the sky at anything below 50%. Apparently everybody failed to tell me to go in at 35% just before touchdown, anything before that has to be at higher %.

So what needs to be done is to go in at about 55-60% where you are flying about 1000 knots? nautical miles? i don't know, i'l call it 1000x. Now once you are at about 5 sec before landing reduce to 45%, then 1 sec before touchdown, throttle back and apply breaks when reaching the end of runway. Anything slower than that and the damn thing just drops down with no way to recover, you can tell how easily it just drops out in alot of the sequences.

Anybody got anything to add to this? Cuz its the first vid i see of J10 landing action, could be useful for others.


PS: Did anybody else know you can do a wheelie in the J10??

The best way to land in a J10 is to touch down around 700khr(end of the runway) with your nose up(trial and error you will know how far up) and Then pull back on your joystick to break the jet. You shouldn't be applying any power during the land drop or on the runway.

go by AIR-Speed, not percent of throttle.
