When you hit the deck you need your throttle all the way off.

There are 2 things to cause this.  

#1, the CV is moving, and you can actually roll backwards if brakes aren't applied.

#2, You need to take your arrester hook up, as landing causes tension on the cables.  Once foreword motion stops, the cable tries to release tension, ie. the rubber band effect.

I land with power on, hook down, enough to cause the slingshot (I know it well, because I like to torture n00bs by tricking them into slingshotting off the back..) and yet this has never happened to me. Once I hit the deck and feel the bumps though, I cut power off. Perhaps this is a new bug?
