Wingtip/Knife Edge Spin
#2
I come up into a high angle knife edge ( right to left, left wing down)... reduce power till it stalls. Then goose the throttle while holding full down (or up) elevator and enough right rudder to keep the tail down.

There's about 5 different ways to do this, and each plane only seems to be able to do it one way. The way mentioned above works for some planes. Others do it better when doing a hammerhead. Once you rotate half way around and the nose is horizontal, slam full opposite rudder, down elevator, and a little oppose aileron. It'll settle in and just fall.
Another ways is from the vertical, quickly slame full down and make the plane nose down. As soon as the nose is pointed towards the ground, but before it gains any downward speed, give it full rudder, full down, and a little opposite aileron.
Just takes a little experimentation to find out what works.

with some foamys with brutal rudder power you may want to release it a bit to make it stay in the maneuver
