Default Is this "snapping" outta a loop?

Since you've got high/low rates, it might be in your best interest to lessen the throw on low rates until the "snapping" tendency is gone completely. That way if you ever "dead stick" and you're a little low and pointing away from the field, you wont, inadertently pull back too far on the elevator trying to get the nose up to turn back toward the field. (I did that once :stupid: ) . Now when you dead stick immediately flip to low rate elevator then you're safe to do whatever you want to land safely. If have all my planes set up this way.

Now as far as high rates go, tweek it till the hinges creeeeekk
