Knife edge spin

Hi,

What is the reason some planes are better than others in this maneouver? I have 2 50cc planes, a Sukhoy that does it very easily and an Extra that is almost impossible to do. Is it the geometry of the plane or has to do with CG and deflexion of the surfaces?

Thanks,

JoanC

Well, I'm sure bigger the elevator, the easier it is, but I saw some frames not exactly 3D doing it,too
Every plane seems to need slightly different inputs.
