Default 12FG Exponential Setting Question

I'm still trying to figure out how to set up the programming on my 12FGA transmitter. I have a very basic question. I want to use exponential to desensitize elevator, aileron, and rudder functions around neutral. So do I want to set the curve rates at plus or minus? I'm thinking it should be set at +70%. Is this correct? If not, what would be a good differential setting?
Thank you
JC

Use negative exponential. Positive will make the controls more sensitive near center.

Bax,
Thank you. Please advise as to what would be a good negative exponential setting to start with. Would -20% be OK for a low-wing aerobatic model?
Regards

I varies with the airplane. -20% to -30% would be good numbers to start with, and go from there. If you have large control surfaces with a large amount of movement, then perhaps a bit more expo would be desired.
