You will Enjoy flying the C-182 Cjam.
the simple rule I use for landing them is No load No flaps (1 pob half fuel or less) Half a load half flaps 20 degrees or so, fully loaded full flaps, works for me every time.
An extra half turn of the trim wheel on finals to help with the control forces in the flare is another thing I recommend for a smooth landing. Ive landed 182's with 6 pob after aborted parachute sorties with full flap with no problem at all, many inexperienced or inattentive pilots have smacked 182's onto the runway nosewheel first and done some damage - this is mostly due to the fact the nose wheel oleo fully extends in flight and sits 6 inches or more below the level of the mains the newer post 1972 model 182's nose wheel extends less but can still be a problem.
