One thing I do is remove mixing for snap/spin conditions just to "clean 
up" the abosolute throws so you are not dealing with mix %'s messing 
other stuff up.  I also use the spin condition for stall turns, more 
rudder and elevator I find are useful in those for getting out of jams 
if you make a boo-boo :)

Snaps I run with 0 expo everywhere, then everything is moving fast right 
off the bat.  However you gotta get in and out of the switch immediately 
before and after the snap....some people dont hold their Tx's in a way 
that makes this easy.

Conditions give you a lot of freedom over simple rates, I think the best 
trick is to have an active imagination and try everything that may make 
your plane easier to fly for you :)
