Do you have to totally fly it all the way through a loop? I have found with GAS's stearman that in order to get it to loop, I have to dive it to gain speed up to about 130 mphs and then almost immediately pull the stick all the way back. I also have to put in a lot of right rudder right at the top of the loop. Without starting right rudder input on the initial pull back and progressing until I have all the input available, it just falls off to the left.
I don't have any real world time in a Stearman but, did own a 80 inch wingspan RC model. If you were not very careful when looping it, it would do the same thing. It would bite you really quick going into a left spin. That's why I always flew it 3 mistakes high...
