Default well....??

I've just started in heli, and for two days ago I had just finished my first gallon of fuel. I feel that I have managed to get my starlet 50 pretty right tuned. I'm now into stably hovering, ff(left), and I almost did a nose In.

Well here Is my question:

I feel It's pretty easy turning left during ff, but when I try to turn right I feel totally lack of control.

Is this because of counterclockwise rotor direction or Is It just me :bananahea ?
Is It harder to learn one direction than another?

A lot of people can only turn left. Make sure you are using enough right tail rotor in a right turn and practice it till it is comfortable. The heli will turn left better, but you need to practice both.

It's common to feel more comfortable turning one way than the other. Get on the sim and practice turning the other way ALOT. You'll break yourself of the "left only" turn thing.
