Difficulties taking off and landing

@davidcrum ok I'm using the tca sidestick and have the same problem than yours. Impossible to flare before landing and it's difficult to make stall

@panghelo That describes my (and yours) problem. Taking off is also difficult, but somewhat manageable.
@davidcrum and it's only with the Pa-28r iii and turbo III and IV.

Hi,
I too use the Logitech Extreme Pro.
I can flare- but I find the control inputs way over sensitive for good approaches and landings - and there’s a consistent left rolling tendency on climb out. I’m familiar with P-Factor, torque etc. , but there seems to be more than that.
What control sensitivity settings are you using on the Logitech?
Thanks!

I have done both, elevator trim has been set to zero (using the trim wheel), no difference, and tried it multiple times with the default.

@davidcrum elevator trim should be set nose - up a bit (the amount dependant on payload). Also, make sure your control curves and sensitivities are set as noted several times already in the forum - linear!

Real life Arrows have relatively high pitch control forces. You learn early on to use trim to control all but very minor pitch changes unless of course you're trying to make up for missing a session at the gym. I tend to use a little more up trim on final approach then required for the airspeed I'm trying to maintain. This requires a a little forward pressure on the yoke. When it's time to flare for landing, I just relax the forward pressure and pitch to maintain the right sight picture between the nose and the end of the runway. That usually results in a very smooth Landing. Whether or not you agree with this approach, the JF Arrow behaves very close to the real deal in the situation.
