That's a good point. I had to think about it for a minute to understand what you meant,because I actually wasn't thinking along those lines. I was merely suggesting that due to the extremes we are pushing our models these days,I see expo as more of a necessity for a comfortable flying experience than a crutch. I don't know if flying without it would make you a better pilot,or if it would just make it look like your fingers aren't moving because you only have to breathe on the sticks for a response. I'm not speaking from a great deal of experience though. I use some expo to tone down the rudder on my sport plane for smoother ground handling. It gives me the same feel as dual rates did,but without having to remember to flip the switch.
