Bob, here is my subjective viewpoint.
If you are a bit high on airspeed when flaring, the RV will seem to float forever down the runway. However, if you are a bit low on airspeed, it will thump on the ground pretty quickly. So airspeed control is a bit more critical (in my opinion) to get that just-right landing in an RV. .
I too had flown only high wing aircraft before my 20 hours in a Warrior prepping for my RV, so I understand what you are encountering.
