ACS element text (the applicant demonstrates understanding of)

Establish the takeoff, departure, or cruise configuration, as specified by the evaluator, and maintain coordinated flight throughout the maneuver.

Bottom line

Engine power is then increased to that recommended in the AFM/POH for the practice of power-on approach to stall. Coordinated flight occurs whenever the pilot is proactively correcting for yaw effects associated with power (engine/ propeller effects), aileron inputs, how an airplane reacts when turning, and airplane rigging.
