RE: Hovering and torque rolling
I think of it as if I were flying inverted. I can hover my E-Flite Ultimate in the cul-de-sac until the battery dies, but nevertheless, I would recommend you hover up high with the belly facing you and just keep practicing on and off the sim. Like they said, RELAX. You're not there to win anything, so just relax and have fun.[8D] Practice makes perfect.
P.S. Go easy on the controls on the sim. Gentle movements always help your hover.
