It wouldn't be in a full stall if the ailerons were still effective.
Those rectangular wings stall at the roots first and work outward, but
the nose will drop some while doing so, reducing AOA, and the stall
might not reach the tips. The 172 will do the same thing, which makes
it hard to spin. The Warrior will do a gentle porpoising thing that it
calls a "stall" but it never really gets there. If the wing gets fully
stalled on an airplane there's not doubt that it has quit flying. You
cannot hold the nose up at all.
