RE: Stall Characteristics of the Bug
Is it a Super hornet or Classic hornet, and what model is it?
My experience is with the Skymaster Classic and Super hornets. If your CG is aft you have to watch for pitch up when slow, the lex on the super has allot of area and tends to overpower the other surfaces at high aoa, slow speeds. If not arrested right away it will usually spin.
The classic just kind of mushes then enters a high rate if decent at high aoa, and can also spin at aft cg's, although allot less likely to do it.
As you get too slow the planes tend to get wobbly, and you might see some yaw diversions right before departure, however if it gets that far it might be too late at low alt. Drag comes on pretty fast as the aoa increases just be ready for it with some throttle. Most of the hornets I have flown can fly very slowly with power on, and are pretty well behaved if you get the power on soon enough.
