Crab, I also would like to understand the physics behind the uncommanded snaproll right. They quit teaching 0-g recoveries by the time I got my PPL, and my instructors are vague on the whole subject. Also, if the snaproll right is caused by left pedal that should be neutralized when the MR torque drops to rotational drag only, then why not a neutralized pedal recovery, leave the stick and the lever alone, and wait for gravity to take over? And yes, I fly Robbies out of necessity, not choice, so the answer to these questions is of more than academic interest.
