Default What DR / EXPO are you using with your Protos 500?

Seeking some consensus as to what DR/EXPO settings work best specifically for the Protos 500 and I do understand that it is "what you are used to and what you are comfortable with" but there is always an important component which is the actual model and how it flies and prefers the controls.

Mine are

MODE DR EXPO
1/ Normal mode 80 25
2/ Idle Up 1 100 20
3/ Idle Up 2 100 20



Thanks

I run cyclics at 20 and tail at 30 on all my birds with dual rates at 100.
I used to not use any expo when I was learning until I found out how it worked exactly, and how it makes my flying look smoother when doing smooth moves like funnels and makes it feel more poppy when doing fast poppy moves

Not just the model but also the blades (thin blades and FB blades are more responsive near center and thus prefer more expo) and mostly the FBL controller and it's settings. With high agility setting you may want to run higher expo setting. I actually tune it the other way. I always target at 20/100 on cyclic and tail D/Rs. I then tune agility, flying style, flip/roll rates etc to fit. This way I'll get consistent feel between all my helis even with different FBL controllers.
