Default snap roll

OK everyone else had suggestions, I guess I can throw in my two cents.
I had same problem with several planes that I admit to over doing the elevator travel...but that is what I wanted.
My solution that corrects huge amounts of the problem is to increase wing lift at high angles of attack.. How you ask..
Mix with computer radio the ailerons into the elevator. When commanding up elevator, the ailerons drop and reverse for down elevator. It will be a large improvement for no cost..
Almost all my planes are now set up this way.
Down side...make sure you can turn this mix off or landing in the wind will be a ballon on wings!!!
