No nose up for us. We have been flying a 14' Sagitta XC lately, and
deployment of those big spoilers result in a L/D of 0 to 1:-) .They really do
their job, and require large amounts of up elevator to compensate. The key
is to use them sparingly as 90* deflection is way over-kill. A little bit
goes a long way on this 8# ship. Fun to fly though. Awesome in the air.
