Default RE: My airplane gets into these tight on a dime uncontrolled maneuvers.

Another thing to consider is; You need to adjust the trim as the fuel level changes or gets lower.
As you know the model gets more nibble as the CG moves back. Or the elevator becomes more sensitive.

Another tip that my instructor gave me was to trim slightly nose down for landing procedures.
And to also fly the model around a couple of times around before making attempting landing proceedures.
This way my brain can adjust to the slower speed. This will help to minimize over controling.

The samething happens when exiting the freeway on your automobile.
