I fly the ST with the recommended throws, it ends up on low rate all the time so I am going to do as Isaacslaw and make my low rate the high rate. I also fly a pattern and find that even the recommended low rate is a little more than I need to do the sequence. As far as the expo I also fly anywhere between 60-70% I feel it makes the manuvers a lot smoother and graceful. This plane is a dream to fly, go out have fun
