Jan 26, 2023 at 4:52 comment added Forbes It is the timing that makes for a good flick roll. The aeroplane is given a sudden increase in angle of attack with elevator but not quite enough to stall the wings. At that point full rudder will stall one side. The elevator should then be relaxed forward of neutral (in a positive flick) so you don’t lose a lot of energy. The rotation is increased by doing this. The flick is stopped by full opposite rudder at the right moment with only a tad more forward stick. Half flicks, which I have yet to try, require the technique to be modified.
