Default Multiple Rates..

I set up 3 different rates on elevator and 2 for aileron. Elevator normal mode consists of the recommendations from everyone here and locally which is 100% endpoints with 30% expo. Elevator D/R 1 is 120% endpoint with 20% expo and D/R 2 is 140% endpoint with 0 expo.

Aileron normal is 100& endpoint with 20% expo and D/R 1 is 110% endpoint with 0 expo.

I intend to fly using the standard configurations but since my F-16 is heavy I thought having some additional throw available is a good idea (D/R 1). Obviously elevator D/R 2 is intended for when I am feeling very comfortable and want to try some high AOA, slow landings and just get a feeling in general for 0 exponential, The same goes for aileron.

Since I have been made aware of the substantially large envelope of elevator throw for the F-16 I think this is a good idea.

Im sure that some of you have similar programming..? Does anyone recommend that I NOT change the rate of expo for the different throw settings?

Thanks! Pete
