[QUOTE][I am thinking of a Rate 1 turn./QUOTE]
Turns in the circuit are not necessarily Rate One which is 30 seconds for a 90 degree turn and is normally only applicable to instrument flying. The first climbing turn on to the first crosswind leg should be made at 30 degrees angle of bank whereas a Rate One turn with a typical 80 knot climb speed gives you around 15 degrees angle of bank. The longer you have one wing lowered in a high wing aircraft the more exposure you have to not seeing another aircraft in that blind spot.
Turning to downwind leg and depending on wind direction and speed, you may consider conducting a climbing turn to the downwind leg in order to attain the correct spacing from the runway. Do that at 30 degrees angle of bank for same reason as earlier. Turning base again for for 30-40 degrees angle of bank which is considered a medium turn. Same for turning final.
