Quique says something like: "We climb... we need altitude to do this maneuver... we climb... and then we point the plane down... doing a stall turn or whatever... then we push full elevator, then full left aileron and full left rudder... then add some power."
I think it depends on the plane and its setup. You definitely start on a downline... and you definitely need full down elevator... but I usually only need mid rudder and a little aileron for it to come out right. And, a little power... like Quique says. ;-)
Wayne? Don? Anyone? :-)
