Dntmn, this will be my 3rd year in advanced. Lots of guys have issues with snaps usually because they like to run too much rudder and elevator. For sequence flying I like my throws close to the following.

Elevator Up 18 degrees down 20 degrees with expo at 45

Rudder 20 degrees both directions with expo at 50

aileron 30 degrees with expo set at 60

Right now I have these setting on my low rate but the the first 4 manuvers are flown on a higher rate because they require more rudder. Lots of guys that do 3D and then start flying sequences have too much throw and not enough expo because they are used to flying with lots of throw. To jump directly to my throws would give the feeling of limited control. Remember, if the judge can see the correction he will deduct points for the mistake and the correction. Makes it really easy to see 4s and 5s on the score sheet.
