Blizzard tip stalls

Blizzard tip stalls
Can anyone tell me if V tails are more likely to tip stall than a T or X tail? A friend keeps tip stalling his Blizzard (NOT ME, HONESTLY!!), but mainly when he's power off into the wind (when he's trying to glide/thermal). I think it's due to the small wing area, weight of the plane and lack of air speed, and the fact the plane is a hotliner not a thermaller, but he thinks it is a trait of V tails. Anyone else had problems with the Blizzard?

A tip stall is what it says... the main wing stalls from the tip first. nothing to do with the type of tail. If C of G etc are correct then he is simply slowing up too much.

Yeap, he's slowing it up too much. Been there with my Bandit...

Too bad stupid isn't painful.
