The maule landing challenges are in someways similar to the icon ones and are judged on the same criteria (see "Icon A5 Landing Master" for more information). The exception is that number 3 is judged on touchdown instead of soft landing (which is the same thing anyway), and 5 and 6 are only judged on soft landing and side skid. That is where the similarities end. Most of the maule challenges have either extremely windy weather, inappropriate surfaces to land on, or both. Always follow these pointers though and they will help you get gold:

• Line up your landing from a long way away
• Try to land in the centre or earlier of the designated area
• Remember to use your flaps "F6" to help slow you down
• For the soft landing, you will need to be traveling at around 60kts and descending slowly
• If you are descending too fast, you need to increase throttle to around 45% and put the nose up
• Try to land into the wind as this will help slow you down
