Simple trick to land at just over stall without rolling over.

Don't use ailerons to keep yourself level below 210kph. Use the rudder, which is what you would do IRL. If a wing starts to drop, rudder away from it just a bit.

What goes on is when a wing is close to stall with no side-stick, you push the stick to the side to get one wing to lift and the outer wing on that side will get a higher Angle Of Attack that might take it right into stall, force it to drop and go back at the same time which puts the plane into slip and stall at the same time which is the formula for spin.

Ruddering away from the dropping wing makes that wing move just a bit faster. Don't just watch The Ball because it's too slow. Watch the wings and the horizon.

I told a pilot friend about sidestick on takeoff and landing in EAW and he told me that would get me killed IRL. In IL2 that practice doesn't work.

Any time you're slow, sidestick is a good way to get in a spin.
