RE: katana snaps with minimal elevator input
sbaugz,
Just try it before you sell it........ Get rid of the right thrust! As you found out, moving the CG forward does not help a stall and can make it worse. An airplane should look like its falling off to the left on a full power up-line.... You can always mix in right rudder with throttle if you really need to have the straight looking upline. This is how ALL full scale and many Pattern & IMAC fliers are getting the stright up-lines. If you have so much right engine thrust built in that the airplane looks straight up in a full power upline it will be yawing to the right all the rest of the time. This is the one sure way to make the right wing drop (stall) before the left. If you still don't think it's engine thrust try this.
Take off then add a bunch of left rudder trim & then trim the ailerons for level flight. Now yank back hard on the elevator on high rates. The left wing should now stall first. A good 3d pilot can make either wing stall first or make both wings stall at the same time with Yaw (rudder) control.
