Default RE: hovering


ORIGINAL: pitch

as someone who is new to helis i have a hovering question. when learning to hover is it best or easiest to hover just a couple inches off the ground(in your wash) or higher up out of your wash but risking more damage in a fall. i have been told both ways by different people are better.
Pitch,
It's all in a leaning curve, do what works for you. 6 inches off the ground or 2 feet. Eventually, all of it will come to you and will make sense and you'll be able to fly where ever you want. It takes time and patience. And a ton of practice. Fly everyday if you can. If you step away for 2 weeks or so, it takes awhile to get back in the groove.
