I'm early in flight testing of LN2 N42BK and I have a few comments/questions about the deep stall characteristics I've experienced so far.

Pre-stall characteristics seem very good for all the stalls I've done. Plenty of warning and excellent controllability.

Power-on stall has a fairly abrupt pitch down but flies right out of the stall with relaxed pressure on the stick. I haven't held back pressure in after the pitch down so I don't know how it would behave.

Power-off with gear and flaps has a very dramatic left wing drop. This is after ample warning, so you'd have to be dead to fully stall the thing unintentiionally, but wow -- it's a wild moment. Recovery is straight forward, but I sure don't just fly out of it.

My question: Has anyone been able to tame this thing with control system tweeks? What is the best you can expect from a perfect 320?

Thanks in advance.
