Hi. If you turn with stall limit, the turning radius will be very tight, but the aircraft will be very slow (angular velocity is low). If you want to turn to a theoretical maximum angular velocity (constant speed, sustainable energy for a long time), you need the
corner speed (this is a basic, well-known thing. It is taught in military academies).
