Default RE: Feei Bao F22 Raptor advise Please

Hi Wayne , Dave UK , could i have your thoughts please,
Been flying the Raptor a bit , set it with wing ailerons and elevators at rear and found as you did the aileron response was quite soft so i mixed in some elevon to rear stabs and it cheered it up no end .
However i am having trouble tightening up the turn on finals !
In normal flight with steady speed a fairly tight turn can be achieved by banking quite hard and pulling the model round with the elevator , it does not drop the nose and never looks unhappy ,
however my problem is when on final's with low throttle and flaps down the last thing i want to do is bank hard and yank the elevator but without doing that the turn radius is very big making it hard to line up on our patch to land .
It was recomended not to fit rudders but without them i dont know how else to achive a tighter turn !, appreciate your thoughts please ,
Hope you are all well , Dave.
