I once owned a homebuilt called a Moni which had a V tail. Although some people said it was 'twitchy' in pitch, I didn't find this and when flying it, you wouldn't have known it wasn't a 'conventional' tailplane. Indeed it was very pleasant to fly, you just had to 'think' what you wanted to do and the aircraft did it with the smallest control input.
There was a complicated looking 'mixer' unit in the rear fuselage which sorted out the control positions for you ie combining rudder pedal movements with sidestick movements.
As for spin recovery, I think the manual said stick neutral, full opposite rudder until the spin stops, then stick fully forward, (but I may be wrong as it's over 25 years ago)
