So far the spin recovery technique I have used in my RV-8 has been the following.
1. Throttle: Idle,
2. Aileron: Neutral,
3. Rudder: Full opposite the direction of spin,
4. Elevator: After full opposite rudder is applied, progressively forward until spin stops.
I had an interesting and protracted recovery today from the middle of the aerobatic cg envelope and I was wondering what other folks are doing with the elevator. I am particularly interested in the sequence of application and the size of application of elevator inputs.
Cheers
