It's a "normal" O360, non aerobatic, but with inverted oil and fuel system etc. If that matters.
Flew more negative g's today (time wise, around -1g), similar to when it first happened, and almost no oil leakage.
What sequence/figures would drain the slobber pot or cause it to overflow? From looking at the schematics a low g should have more chance to have it overflow, as the valves might not be positioned properly. But that doesn't match with the flight I did when it overflew.
The file you linked to talks about oil losses in vertical rolls with inverted entry and recovery. I was nowhere close to doing anything like that.
