That would be great, just buy a plane that hovers easy right out of the box. I always thought long tail moments did make hovering easier but now I have one short coupled plane (Velox) & it hovers quite well. I'm much better at hovering now, but when I had a 68" Yak, I couldnt keep that thing in a hover to save my life, it was also relatively short coupled. I also used to think the long tail moments made KE easier but again the Velox makes you re-think it. In short, dont think long tail moments will give you any sort of advantage, it might help a little at first, but again it depends on the plane/engine/setup. You want the tail surfaces to function well in hovers, not having enough control will make it almost impossible to hover, having too much sensitivity can also be a problem. The X100 and Velox both have nice control while hovering, bordering on too much, but you can adjust it. The Do (60) is in the middle somewhere, enough to get the job done, not too much which helps you from over-controlling it. I have other planes that would be better hoverers if they had more tail control, if you need full rudder often, its not very easy to hold a hover.
