Landing Sideways
That's it. It's called a sideslip and works really well at burning off altitude. I guess with models it must be a little easier with those pendulous floats hanging down changing the location of the CG, because I've seen it more at float flies. It puts the side of the fuselage into the airflow. You're right, right aileron, left rudder or vice versa. High wing types should work the best.
