That said I'm surprised it behaved like that - turning dramatically to one side on stalling. All planes I've flown, model aircraft that I've built and paper darts just lose lift when they stall rather than yawing to one side. It seems there was something off with the aerodynamics of that plane.

STOL kit and possibly trim setting causes tip stall rather than root.

Maybe the higher torque of the propeller?
