I'm not that good, but the higher the nose is at the start of the roll the less Gs you will feel out the bottom... I tend to cut it in half, and do .2g for the top part and try for 1.5 on the bottom. that way you don't hafta point so high and can roll slower.. Entry speed isn't as big a deal as how high the nose is at the start of the roll.. The legacy rolls smoother than anything I've ever been in... climbing past vertical and rolling level is smooth, but don't roll too soon. start out fast and pause on the vertical line, (way fun) its almost easier to not roll level until the 45 down line. rolling over and pulling the acceleration is fast, and expect Gs.. too many Gs for me..
