Default Hover a Dazzler?

I have the same stuff on my Dazzler, in fact there it is, pictured over on the left!

The Dazzler is kind of a pre-3D plane, and IMHO does not hover well. I can hover my Morris Su-Du-Khoi and my Somethin' Extra, but the Dazzler would rather torque roll.

I think part of the reason is that the ailerons are cut at an angle near the fuselage, which prevents the prop airflow from having much effect in a hover. The other planes have ailerons that hug the fuselage.
