Default except when it loops .......... SNAP

I'm flying a Bat, combat plane, and it flies well ........ except when it loops. It will snap at the top of the loop and not fly thru it. This looks cool but on a low pass that could be a good splat.

I have tried to reduce the throw in the elevator but it does not seem to help. The plane balances a bit nose down, maybe 3 degrees and is ok side to side.

Is this natural for this type of plane? How about mixing elev and alerion?

Thanks for any help on this issue. This plane is a hoot to fly and I am looking forward to learning to fly combat.

Thanks,
