What are some of the most common mixes for pattern pilots? I think it would be pretty sweet to generate a list for the newer guys to see what the more experienced guys are doing.

Obviously the most important thing to do is properly trim out the plane, THEN make necessary adjustments. But, I imagine some things are inevitable even with a properly trimmed plane. I've flown all summer without using mixes, have been working on trimming my plane, and think I am ready to start using the tools of my radio, at least in competition. Also I think this is very appropriate and specific to pattern planes as they are designed to fly well and have less couplings than other aricraft.

Thanks for the input!
