I flew my limbo dancer for years nd i taught me a lot of my 3d.
1) like most planes with enough elevator it will harrierm but not that well. i seem to remember mine was very wobbly inverted also but i probly built it skew. Also with the thick wind it is tricky to get it slow enough to stall the wing and achieve a genuine harrier.
2)Brilliant for learning to hover thats how i learnt and yeh torque trolling is pretty much the same thing.
3)Ive alwasy bin cr@p at these so i cant reely judge but it probly wud in the right hands.
4) YES this plane does the most awesomeflat spins.
5) No theres simply not enough side area and if u achieve it u wont be able to maintain it.

My Limbo Dancer was my third "Fun-Fly-type" model - and I was doing 3D with it before I'd even heard of 3-D! It was great to fly slowly on flat calm days, and could handle a strong wind too. I loved flying mine and it just make me smile every time I flew it. Loops either way up could be ridiculously small (and could be done "sideways" too). It could do insanely fast rolls and would prop-hang easily. I always struggled with knife-edge in a straight line (ok, I couldn't actually do it for more than a few yards!), but I could get an untidy knife-edge loop - so long as I kept it small (all done "on the prop" though, due to the lack of fuz side-area). I sold mine after over 200 flights when I got a Cougar 2000. This flew just about the same as the LD - but it looks much prettier :)
