I also need to mention when taking off, the heli will and always will, due to gyroscopic effect, want to roll to the left. If the heli was a counter-rotating blade, the heli will veer right. You will always have to counteract this tendency by applying right cyclic. Once it is about 1 ft off the ground you can decrease the amount of right cyclic to attain a somewhat upward lift off and into hover mode.
