Also I agree modelers come from all different back grounds and aren't usually fortunate to get structured training, which there is nothing wrong with that. The main thing is that it's a hobby and that they enjoy it. I guess I'm hard on my RC students by training them similar to the way I do my full scale students. I teach that all landings should have a nose high attitude but we do airwork first and that includes doing stalls with their trainer as well as proper recovery. Being able to use the rudder is a must for them. And I guess what you are saying here is probably the safest way to keep people from a stallspin by having a fairly high approach speed and really to teach someone cross control techniques one would really need some hands on with an instructor and buddy box. I am by far not the best RC pilot but I do try to practice the same techniques I use in the full scale because I've learned that bad habits are hard to break. Anyway I don't really agree with the statement of the nose gear but that's ok we all have our opinions I guess, and as long your technique is helpful then I guess that's good
