Default Knife edge spin

Yes but it is possible to have too much in some designs and that will throw the spin out of whack. For example my Midwest and H9 Extras will KES with full aileron (high rates) and remain stable, but I flew a CA 34% Extra and a Fiberclassics 35% Extra that would come out of it if you give full aileron. Different techniques for different planes I guess, and my example is roughly the same design too.
