No matter how hard i try to mimic the 152s weird stalls n spins is beyond my belief. i wana know why. i always get the 152 to stall n feather down to death when im not patient.

Hey Bearkats.  Been ok.. Real busy with schoolwork.

Greens - Try getting a feel for it by flying in chase view (smooth, not fixed, outside view). Turn on smoke and just watch how it behaves and reacts.  Memorize one maneuver (or a few different ones) that consistently take you into spins, and repeat it in chase view with smoke on.  Try to make departure as smooth as you can, and then try to recover it later and later into departure, starting as early as you're comfortable with.

Like you said it takes patience if it doesn't seem to make sense right away.  Try not to fight with the plane but find how to guide it using its own natural tendencies.

Can't any time soon, as much as I want to.  Dropping by the forums every now and then to help out where I can is the best I can do for the near future.

Someone once explained to me, I think it was moot, that because the 152 has such a long tail, to much rudder when rolling can alter the center of gravity making the plane stall like that. This is even more so at slower speed around 250-180

I always try to limit the amount of time when I'm vertical and trying to do the wingover. If someone topples over, don't waste any time, go immediately after them. I find that if you kick rudder hard, you can push down on the joystick immediately and still keep control.
Landing is overrated.

I actually push forward and to the left...I think :uhoh It will send you into a spin but throttle +rudder work gets you out right away for the most part

I've tried that before, if I kick rudder left, I will usually kick opposite rudder once "level" and push forward to whichever direction I feel needs it most.

If you burn aft tank the plane should automatically come towards level from vertical :aok

 :O Whoooooooooaaaaaaaaaaa. You blew my mind, dude.

Forgot about tank usage when I was flying the thing.... Back to the drawing board for this dummy.  :bhead

Flying in offline aint the same as flying in the MA in my opinion. seems different. But ya m00t, i will try to master the stall thingy part.
