Default Which one? DP Extra or GP Extra?

As far as IMAC flying is concerned, I'm not sure I'm going to be happy flying my DP Extra. My plane at least has some odd snap characteristics; you have to get just the right amount of rudder, aileron, and elevator to get a really clean snap. If you use too much elevator it does a semi-wall that just does a little rotation. This may be a characteristc of all giant scale aerobats, but I flew a WM Extra with sequence throws set up very close to mine, and all I had to do to get a good snap was just jam the sticks. I'll be putting my DP on a Futaba 9CAP soon, and I will definitely set up the snap switch for that plane. But I really prefer to just jam the sticks.
