I would hesitate to call a wingover a chandelle.

They are different maneuvers.

I was taught to perform a chandelle from a level entry @ 105 knots, to 30-45
degrees bank, steeply climbing, descending airspeed, 180 degree turn,
finishing wings level in stall buffet.

Close enough for government work.

IMHO a wingover is much closer to a very steep (over 90 degree) lazy 8.

In the Navy, at least, it is exactly 90 degrees of bank, at precisely 90
degrees of heading change and nose cutting the horizon; then gradual
roll-out to a 180 degree change of direction at the entry altitude.
