easing the joystick into the position of the direction you would like to go.

recommends for initial piloting of the helicopter, focus on learning
to control the throttle joystick fi rst. During your fi rst fl ight we recommend
you work at learning to keep the helicopter at a constant 3 foot altitude
before attempting to learn directional control of the helicopter. After the
pilot has mastered the throttle joystick, then start learning to turn with
the direction joystick.
