Peoblem (or solution) is not in pulling the yoke back far enough. The wing has

It's a combination of the two: you limit elevator or stabilator travel, and
then use wing twist to make it more likely that the plane will be
controllable on the edge of stall. I'm pretty sure that that twist adds
drag, though.


All the best,
