[NSRCA-discussion] Rudder Dual Rate

[Bob Richards]

I might add that I always chose my rudder dual-rate throw so that it was just slightly more than what was necessary for knife-edge flight, or for good snaps, whichever was greater. High rate was as much as I could get for stall turns. I did quite well using the switch.
   
  But, I also don't use a neckstrap or tray, and fly with my thumbs. :-)

  I have done exactly what you describe.

    I'm working on the Intermediate pattern and have got a question on dual rates.
  Except for the stall turns I like to keep the rudder on a lower rate...this keeps me from over-controlling direction changes.
  On the two stall turn maneuvers, however,  I flip it to high rate, but then back again as soon as the maneuver is over.
  Just curious if anyone else does this, and, in fact, does anyone alternate between low and high rates while flying their respective sequences?  Or, am I generating a bad habit?
