Default RE: High/Low Rates or Expo?

I know im gonna get flamed for this. I just augered in a funtana .40 yesterday. uncommanded full throttle, controls unresponsive. we had to hit the deck at the field as she was heading no kidding right for us at top speed (75mph or so. i have a super Tigre G-51) then she rolled inverted and nosed over. I need a new carb. and plane. Yes the funtanna was my first plane, got a good deal on it built. $50. Im going to buy a hangar 9 solo trainer in about an hour. like i should have done in the first place.

I used both dual rates and expo set WAY low as its designed for 3D. like 50% elev. w/ less than 3d full rate throws. and 40% aileron. I had expo on both dialed in at -40 (futaba 6exa) it was really gentle near center, but i could still have fun with it.
