Default To flap, or not to flap?

I have flown most of the kit planes, from Ringmasters to Noblers. Some have flaps and some don't. Which is the preferred method for a stunter? I thought the non-flapped planes responded quicker to elevator inputs. I used the same engine on two planes and it seemed like the flapped plane responded slower. Maybe I should have used a larger engine on it. I just wanted some thoughts on this from those of you that have more experience than me on this. Which is best?
