I don't find it difficult to land on grass though. It's actually nice to get that sink rate with low power as I've been flying EDFs lately. I don't have to worry about overshooting.
I use the sink rate to my advantage. Half flaps and gear on the base leg, full flaps on final then cut power to ~25% wings level and watch it drop like a stone. Blip the throttle to control the sink rate when a few feet off of the ground while applying a slight touch of up elevator and with those two big three bladed propellers you can gently settle into a nice flare for a smooth touchdown.
