i recently found a great book on aerobatics at my LHS. it's titled "Radio Control Aerobatics for Everyone", by Dave Patrick. it has detailed descriptions and good illustrations of the major aerobatic maneuvers, such as snap rolls, spins, lomcevaks, stall turns, torque rolls, tailslides, cuban 8's, rolling circles, knife edge, etc. it has good info on contest sequences and such, and also some info on setting up an aerobatic plane (glow oriented). the only thing it seems to be lacking is some of the 3D maneuvers like harriers, waterfalls, etc. overall, i think it's an excellent book for getting educated about aerobatics.
