Hello, That sounds correct. On the left stick, there are two functions essentially. 1.) Up or down 2.) Yaw Left or Right. On the right stick there are essentially two funtions as well. 1.) Roll Left/Right. 2.) Pitch For(down)/Aft(Up).That covers all of the Axis of flight. The reason the heli rotates left or right when you move the left stick from side to side represents yaw. In the absence of up/down stick movement, only one set of rotors will spin, this is how the heli carries out yaw control(differential torque). If you move the same stick slowly up, but not side to side, both sets of rotors should spin equally and the heli will begin to take off. The right stick controls Roll(Lean Left/Right) when moved from side to side, and when moved up/down the left stick controls Pitch(Lean forward(down) or backward(Up)). Just as in an airplane, a coordinated input of yaw and roll are used to make a turn. However in an airplane, pitch is used only to go up/down(excluding aerobatics), while in a heli, pitch controls up/down while moving in flight, but while hovering, pitch controls forward/backward movement. It sounds like your manual is in error. Good Luck. -ccpmheli
PS You can hold(carefully) the heli in one hand and introduce stick movements to see if reacts as you expect it to.
