Default Learning to Harrier

Hi All,
I was wondering if there are preferred setups to do harriers. Will it help to use some flaps? I would like to start practicing and was wondering what is the best way.

Thanks
Z

Spoilerons are fine but first you must be sure your set up right. You need the right airplane. Many 3D models have a HUGE airfoil and a square wing. To me it helps if there is no huge wing b/c you can reach a stall quicker. Its also very important that your lateral CG is right. And if you have split elevators they must be throwing exactly the same amount (can not be different).

Thanks. I have two different airplanes I can try with. One is a Morris the Knife and the other is an ultrastick 60. I have been flying so a number of years just never tried to learn these 3d type manuevers but now am very interested in them.
Either one of these sound like a good one to learn with??
