You need to be flying at sufficient speed to pull maximum G without stalling
Thats what I said, you fly at the buffet, where you achieve max lift, and minimum speed without stalling.
Have a look at this Aircraft Turn Information Calculator you can play with speeds and bank angle to see what radius of turn you can achieve.
