Unhappy

Off topic a bit, but can anybody tell me how far from a spin a power off stall is? I've held both a PA28, 152 and 172 stalled and kept the wings level with the use of rudder pedals for extended periods. When/how does a spin start always provided that the ailerons are left centred and control is only effected by use of the rudder pedals?

I've done spin recoveries, but always the instructor has to turn the aircraft inside out to put it into a spin. Ive never asked the question how does the aircraft go into a spin in normal use?
