Default setup for the perfect knife edge

wondering what type of setuo people are using for that perfect knife edge. by setup i mean have you put any right thrust or up thrust to the engine. where about do you have the battery and rec. located?

i had an np extra 260 that did the perfect knife edge, i didnt need any right thrust didnt need to mix in any elevator while doing the knife edge.

now however i have other planes that just dont want to fly the knife very straight or smooth. they want to of course follow in the direction of the landing gear.

whats the best way to correct this without adding mixing while doing a knife edge. my radio is a fut. 6exp and doesnt allow that type of mixing. i will ad some pics of the planes im flying that need some knife edge correcting.

i love to fly knife edge but seem to have some issues getting them setup so all i need to do is roll right or left then hold the rudder without using elevator. my nitroplanes extra 260 did it so i know these can do it also just need some advice.
