- Hi there,
- One observation that should be added about decathlons is that they do not
- recover from spins well - that is they have to be flown out, they wont recover
- with just neutralization of controls - you need to give opposite rudder etc
- to get them out. This is true of full size as well as models I am told.
- I once saw a guy bury two in one day (neither of them his own) despite being
- told about this attribute in advance!
