I really thought my computer was screwy or the simulator. But after countless hours.
I can now HOVER:) Yes that's right it wasn't the computer or the sim. It is possible.
I can't believe it.

I'll second that congrats. Most folks don't realise the ( or maybe forget) amount of concentration, etc, going on here
Good for you...

Thankyou Mojopt and lolramen..........it took quite a while. Now it's fun.
I'm telling you I almost quit. I thought it was just to hard. But then it just happens.
That's for all of you out there ready to quit........don't do it. It will come.

My advice is to celebrate by buying an incredibly expensive helicopter.

I like to turn down the simulator/physics speed when I learn something new.
Start with 25% or 50% with no wind and gradually work up to 125% with 15mph winds, 50% gusts, and 100% variance.

Best advice I've gotten yet! Thank you! I found 25% to be too slow but for me I've started my nose in hover at 40% and have been slowly increasing it the value.
Thanks again!
