Default RE: Expo postive or negative

PipeMajor, I would set the high rates at slightly more than recommended and the low rates at slightly less.
Ok, that would make sense.
I love using negative exponential on a real twitchy aerobatic plane. It make those landings a lot smoother.

Exponential can also help even out the engine response to the stick.

I'm sure my Futaba 6XAs doesn't have expo on the throttle. Upon examination, it does allow an expo value for ch 3 but I'm not sure how it would respond. Would you get the softness around the midrange throttle setting? I don't think a halfway closed throttle would equate to exactly a halfway engine speed. Suppose I could play around with it but never really missed not having it.
