How much, if any elevator exponential do you use??

I have been having a little trouble landing my new Super Bandit.. I am not really in control of it pitch wise, in the final hold off, right before touch down. Instead of getting a nice flair and nose high touch down, I am tending to do a little balloon climb to 5’ or so, which results in a nasty flop onto the run way.. (Fortunately the SB is built tough.)

My theory is I am over controlling, possibly due to elevator exponential.

Typically Bandits need a lot of elevator throw to hold off in the final stages of landing. (If you touch down early/fast, the dreaded Bandit bounce happens). To compensate for this high travel rate, I have been running 35% exponential, in an attempt to de-sensitise it at normal flight speeds.

However, I fellow modeller suggests this might be getting me into to trouble. Right before touch down, while holding in a lot of back stick, the exponential is actually making it more sensitive to pitch, which when I think about it would seem to be the case..

Any ones thoughts would be appreciated..

Thanks
