High Alpha Knife Edge
Slow the plane down and chop the throttle and roll the plane into knife edge. Input full deflection rudder and carefully adjust the throttle to bring the nose up and hold it there. Pulse the throttle just barely enough to sustain level high alpha (nose pointing up) flight without climbing. Hold full rudder and adjust the ailerons to balance. Once you get used to it its not too hard, but until you get used to it the plane can feel like its a little squirrely in this attitude.
I want to add that ANY plane is going to couple really bad here (at least so far with me) and be ready on the elevator to find out if it goes to the canopy or belly. My QQ Yak has almost no coupling in knife edge flight but high alpha knife edge it pulls to the canopy a great deal so I end up having to push alot
