Have yo looked at the way he holds the Tx? Maybe you can move his hand up so his thumb does not pull on the stick? Sort of like choking up on the bat?

It may be that he is having trouble doing so many things at one time. He may be at the max his brain can do. The more he flies the better it gets, but his nerves may be getting to him. He might not even know he is doing it until you tell him.

I have had a few issues teaching people how to fly. I would say it is flying away and they argue that it is getting closer. After 5 minutes and it is a tiny, tiny dot, they say it is going "AWAY". They are so fixated on keeping it in the air they loose track of one or the other. He may be just fixated on keeping it going in a straight line and he looses the ability to see it climb.

If all else fails, let him stall or give it lots of down trim when he fly's.
