I agree with Mike that a go around is a good resource. But the best is to master the approach and landing.
Remember that electric airplanes tend to spoil the pilots, since the risk of dead sticks can be drastically reduced.
Gas/Glow can be more temperamental, dead sticks can happen, specially when throttling up on a go around.
In summary, go arounds can fix bad approaches, but one should not be negligent with approaches simply relying on a go around as a last resource.
Cheers,
Ricardo
