Throttle on the down leg can never be a good idea in my opinion. If anyone cares to correct me please do? I am also just learning.
Throttle on the downside is pretty much mandatory. Without the thrust and propwash you just cant pull it off symmetrically.

Without throttle, you can do a big figure 9 if you go high enough...
Sorry for the confusing bit there Warren. The throttle statement was connected to the flutter issue.
Throttle is definitely mandatory.
