Default Just a little hover, any tips for an intermediate pilot?

I did a little hover in my garage and my living room. I've gotten better since I made the video, and I'm going to post a new new video soon. But any tips for an intermediate pilot? The new video is coming as soon as i can get a cameraman, I'll post it in this thread. But I still need tips. Thanks!

You are doing a lot better than I. After a few weeks of indoor practice, I decided to take on a little project with our SAVS. My skills are not really where they need to be, but the project was a very easy one, the weather was perfect, I had pleiny of soft lawn work from, so how bad could it get? I mean - all I had to do was pick up, hover a little bit, let it drift a tad and then set down. A real no-brainer, right? A few short hops went well, so I decided to get a little cocky.....

It took some camera boom parts, some lumber, some coat hanger wire, and lots of duct tape to get that little snag resolved.
