Ho 229 pilot death on landing

Noticed an issue while flying the Ho229 recently, I’ve never had trouble belly landing with basically every plane that I’ve flown in the game except for this one. It seems that for some odd reason whenever the front gear is broken off, or undeployed upon landing no matter what speed you’re at; once at a complete stop your pilot dies. I didn’t bother to test it because it had happened to me the exact same way yesterday and that’s coincidence enough for me.

if you test it and record that tesr you can write a Bug report on the Bug reporting site and maybe get it fixed

I just got speeds up to 250mph to work landing after doing about 45 landings with Horten. What seems to work is shallow angle landing at anything below 250mph either with or without the airbrake deployed. Anything over 250mph and the plane starts to bunny hop extremely fast which knocks out the pilot.
As another precaution I would avoid landing at the ends of the runway because there was like 5-6 times where my pilot either was injured or outright killed while under 230mph in those areas. I think this is due to the pilot coming in contact with the runway lights or even the arresting wire itself.

i can belly land it without physically damaging the plane with ease, but when successful in landing, the pilot dies upon stopping.

Same here
