and that it can flick into a spin a bit easily at the stall.


not so in my experience bandit...

we had to work at getting it into a spin cleanly and there is a particular technique to it that works 9/10 times..

mind you like some others it may like to spiral instead of spin sometimes ...sooooo...in the autorotation stage and before heading downhill rapido...check the ASI...if the speed is rapidly increasing ...time to make plans to return to leven flight GENTLY... ...and start again..
