when i land most of the time i loose my drones. Either they go nose up and get get 1000+ out and explode or i come down on runway and they nose in and explode.

Say that after taking up a formation of Ar234s and landing only one of them.

Not sure how the 234s would do with this, but what I do is come in slow (120 or so) no flaps and lower my gear when I'm at the end of the runway. The drones do tend to fall behind upon lowering gear or even flaps. Waiting until I'm more or less over the runway seems to get all the drones down, that is, if I have any left.

Yep, you have to wait to lower your gear until you're slow and lined up on the runway. If you lower gear too far out they pull up high to match a predefined "glide slope" that ends at the edge of the runway.

My thinking is the closer to the runway, the narrower the angle the less they have to pull up.
