Hi guys!

In Norway we call that maneuver ! "The Chicken Flop"! great fun and looks insane.
Easy to engage by pulling up into a vertical climb with little power, and when u are close to a stall just floor it!!!! Works best when the engine is not lifted in the back like recommended for starters.

Had Jetcat P120 on my previous roo, and the same on the new one ready for maiden flight soon.
Agree on the speed brake discussion, very helpful. I have my speed-brake set on a three way switch, by deflecting the brake 45degrees on the first step and 90 on the second u get a smooth braking effect, plus applying 45degrees brake will make the roo take off on a shorter distance. I tried this on our grass strip and found it helpful.
I used to shut down the turbine just before entering the airstrip on my first short field landings, and it came down smoothly.
We have 100 meters of grass, and its sufficient.
Good luck with your Roo.
