First, I used 4 rates with my Slick and a lot of 3d planes. More the heavier ones. Ailerons get a bit too fast.
First rate is low. this is for imac stuff. Do not usually use much. THis is the one to give up if only 3 position switch. I use a dx18 and an futaba 18mz. they both have more available rates.
2nd rate is a snap rate. this is slightly higher elevator often and rudder (all are individual to the plane to make it snap well) then fast ailerons to provide the snap roll rate to look good. I fly this like my low rate on many planes. Need 3d-like expo for ailerons to do that.
3rd is 3d rates. OFten full deflection rates like on EF planes with 60 degrees of elevator make the plane look crappy in slow rolling harriers for instance and hovering. The expo at the end is just too dramatic. So I find a nice rate like 40 to 45 degrees to smooth them out. Same with huge rudders.
4th is a tumbling rate to get everything out of all surfaces when banging the sticks around.
High throw like 60 degree elevator setup. EF, or 3dhs on some. This is how I set it up. From 63" MXS
FM1 - IMAC - AIL-40% / 25 EXP • ELEV- 18% / 20 EXP • RUD - 30% / 20 EXP
FM2 - Snap - AIL-70%
