Shut the throttle off, makes no difference, just makes your landing longer. Brakes or no brakes it doesn't matter how you slow down up until the glitch, its what you do with the stick when you hit the glitch speed. My way is to stop braking as the tipping speed aproches than pull down on the stick a split second before the tip, you have to time it exactly. If you get it perfect then the plane just nods a little then I can jam on the brakes as much as I like (which is also wrong as this really would make the plane eat dirt).
Before I had the timeing sorted, I found it easier to pull down on the stick many times around the tipping speed because one of you pulls would be likely be on time, if you know what I mean. firing guns at the right instant helped too but I find I don't need to do that anymore.
Its like you need to have the change in balance rearward at the exact moment the balance shifts forward in the glich and the two cancel each other out. This is why just holding the stick down or constant firing at the tip over doesn't work because there is no suddeness to cancel the forward (dark) energy of the glitch speed.
