Given that, by common consent, hovering is the most difficult skill, the most useful tip I received was "Fly the disc" . External conditions aside, the ONLY way a helo can change position is if the disc moves first! Thereafter pure magic! The second tip was to arrange the pedals to allow a comfortable wrist rest. All this on a Whirlwind 10, initially - everything else was easier!
