I've got my Topcap ARF setup to do the sweetest flat spins. In fact I can get the plane so that it's basically stationary in the air chasing its tail, no descent. I've heard some folks talk about a climbing flat spin. If I add more elevator, the plane flops outta the spin. I think it's got enough thrust. I'm currently running a MVVS 49 which turns a 12x4 prop just shy of 15k rpm. It'll rocket outta a hover... So what's the secret?
Thanks!

Over-cross the ailerons so that you induce a slight angle, and slowly come out of the rudder. I've found that every airplans has a 'sweet-spot' in which it occurs. Just keep experimenting and you'll find it - Good Luck!
