Default Wing and Stabilizer arrangement for aerobatics

T tails have a bad reputation for slow recovery from spins and other deep stall maneuvers. and handling will be very different, upright from inverted. I would avoid T tail for aerobatics. In deep stall, the horizontal tail may be completely blanketed by turbulent, slow air spilling off wing, and recovery from spin may be very slow or even impossible.
