The longer the fuselage, the easier it's going to be to hover and torque roll. It will naturally be more stable in that attitude...

The problem is that as you get a longer fuselage, it's get's harder and harder to pull it back up once it starts to fall. It takes a bigger control surface with more throw to do the same thing.

You will see that most of the Morris Airplanes, the Flip 3D, and the UCD all have very long tail moments. That's why they are so great for hovering...It slows them down when it comes to snaps, spins, and tumbles though. There is a trade-off for EVERYTHING.

Of course those airplanes have control surfaces so dang big, it doesn't seem to make much of a difference...
