You could attempt a kinda chandelle like turn, but you are starting out nose
high, low speed, and straight ahead. It would take a lot of forward stick to
keep the G loading below 1 throughout the manouver I would think.


This doesn't make sense. The G loading will stay appropriate to your
current speed at all times as long as the stick is anywhere except hard
back. Above 1, below 1, doesn't matter. Angle of attack is what
matters, and the AoA is fine as long as the stick is somewhere near the
middle. Right forward is completely unnecessary.

I don't think I'd try a chandelle from that position, but the limiting
factor would be roll rate and getting in sufficient bank to be useful
before you ran out of speed. Slow over the top banked 90 degrees and
pulling half a G aroudn the corner would be useful in getting turned
around, if you kept the string straight and the stick back not too far.
Slow over the top and banked 30 degrees would do you very little good
(though I don't think it would hurt).
