Hi Chris!

For Torque Rolling: Cap, Giles, Edge, Extra. Most Cap's have excellent rudders and effective elevators in sub-stall. Most extra's lack the rudder authority to torque roll well.

Caps are tougher to torque because their stab is very high and their main wing low. You have to tilt them back to torque them... it's harder to keep your prespective. An Edge with its inline wings and prop... sits straight up and down while torque'n. Much easier visually to keep things orientated. The Extra is better than the Cap in this regard, too. And, the 330s have plenty of tailfeather authority (and it's about the only difference between them and the 300s).
